Free vibration of rings is presented via wave approach theoretically. Firstly, based on the solutions of out-of-plane vibration, propagation, reflection, and coordination matrices are derived for the case of a fixed boundary at inner surface and a free boundary at outer surface. Then, assembling these matrices, characteristic equation of natural frequency is obtained. Wave approach is employed to study the free vibration of these ring structures. Natural frequencies calculated by wave approach are compared with those obtained by classical method and Finite Element Method (FEM). Afterwards natural frequencies of four type boundaries are calculated. Transverse vibration transmissibility of rings propagating from outer to inner and from inner to outer is investigated. Finally, the effects of structural and material parameters on free vibration are discussed in detail.

The uncertain free vibration analysis of engineering structures with the consideration of nonstochastic spatially dependent uncertain parameters is investigated. A recently proposed concept of interval field is implemented to model the intrinsic spatial dependency of the uncertain-but-bounded system parameters. By employing the appropriate discretization scheme, evaluations of natural frequencies for engineering structures involving interval fields can be executed within the framework of the finite element method. Furthermore, a robust, yet efficient, computational strategy is proposed such that the extreme bounds of natural frequencies of the structure involving interval fields can be rigorously captured by performing two independent eigen-analyses. Within the proposed computational analysis framework, the traditional interval arithmetic is not employed so that the undesirable effect of the interval overestimation can be completely eliminated. Consequently, both sharpness and physical feasibility of the results can be guaranteed to a certain extent for any discretized interval field. The plausibility of the adopted interval field model, as well as the feasibility of the proposed computational scheme, is clearly demonstrated by investigating both academic-sized and practically motivated engineering structures.

Cable Structures

This paper presents a free vibration analysis of cable structures based on the isogeometric approach. The nonuniform rational B-splines (NURBS) basis functions are employed to represent both the exact geometry of cable and displacement fields. In order to enrich the basis functions, the [Formula: see text]-, [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-refinement strategies are implemented. Therefore, these refinement schemes increase the accuracy of solution fields. For determining the static configuration of slack cables as a reference configuration, the well-known penalty method is used. Three numerical examples for slack and taut cable structures are presented in which different refinement schemes are utilized to obtain the converged results. The accuracy and reliability of the present numerical method are verified by comparing the natural frequencies with the results given by other researchers.

Toroidal Shell

Free vibration analysis of a free inflated torus of circular cross-section is presented. The shell theory of Sanders, including the effect of pressure, is used in formulating the governing equations. These partial differential equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients using complete waves in the form of trigonometric functions in the longitudinal direction. The assumed mode shapes are divided into symmetric and antisymmetric groups, each given by a Fourier series in the meridional coordinate. The solutions (natural frequencies and mode shapes) are obtained using Galerkin’s method and verified with published results. The natural frequencies are also obtained for a circular cylinder with shear diaphragm boundary condition as a special case of the toroidal shell. Finally, the effects of aspect ratio, pressure, and thickness on the natural frequencies of the inflated torus are studied.

The dynamic characteristic of a uniform rectangular plate with four boundary conditions and carrying three kinds of multiple concentrated element (rigidly attached point masses, linear springs and elastically mounted point masses) was investigated. Firstly, the closed-form solutions for the natural frequencies and the corresponding normal mode shapes of a rectangular ‘bare’ (or ‘unconstrained’) plate (without any attachments) with the specified boundary conditions were determined analytically. Next, by using these natural frequencies and normal mode shapes incorporated with the expansion theory, the equation of motion of the ‘constrained’ plate (carrying the three kinds of multiple concentrated element) were derived. Finally, numerical methods were used to solve this equation of motion to give the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the ‘constrained’ plate. To confirm the reliability of previous free vibration analysis results, a finite element analysis was also conducted. It was found that the results obtained from the above-mentioned two approaches were in good agreement. Compared with the conventional finite element method (FEM), the approach employed in this paper has the advantages of saving computing time and achieving better accuracy, as can be seen from the existing literature.

The structural elements supporting motors or engines are frequently seen in technological applications. The operation of machine may introduce additional dynamic stresses on the beam. It is important, then, to know the natural frequencies of the coupled beam-mass system, in order to obtain a proper design of the structural elements. The literature regarding the free vibration analysis of Bernoulli-Euler and Timoshenko single-span beams carrying a number of spring-mass system and multi-span beams carrying multiple spring-mass systems are plenty, but the free vibration analysis of Reddy-Bickford multi-span beams carrying multiple spring-mass systems has not been investigated by any of the studies in open literature so far. This paper aims at determining the exact solutions for the natural frequencies and mode shapes of Reddy-Bickford beams. The model allows analyzing the influence of the shear effect and spring-mass systems on the dynamic behavior of the beams by using Reddy-Bickford Beam Theory (RBT). The effects of attached spring-mass systems on the free vibration characteristics of the 1–4 span beams are studied. The natural frequencies of Reddy-Bickford single-span and multi-span beams calculated by using the numerical assembly technique and the secant method are compared with the natural frequencies of single-span and multi-span beams calculated by using Timoshenko Beam Theory (TBT); the mode shapes are presented in graphs.

This study presents the free vibration analysis of circular plate having variable thickness made of functionally-graded material. The boundary conditions of the plate is either simply supported or clamped. Dynamic equations were obtained using energy method based on Love-Kichhoff hypothesis and Sander’s non-linear strain-displacement relation for thin plates. The finite element method is used to determine the natural frequencies. The results obtained show good agreement with known analytical data. The effects of thickness variation and Poisson’s ratio are investigated by calculating the natural frequencies. These effects are found not to be the same for simply supported and clamped plates.
