In this paper, a model is established for the calculation of the vibrations of a composite laminated plate with elastic boundary conditions subjected to local thermal loading. The model is based on first-order shear deformation theory using the finite element method. The influence of boundary conditions, heating area, and heating location on buckling and vibrations of a composite laminated plate was investigated, and there were two stages in which the critical temperature increased sharply during the transition from free boundary to simply supported and rigid fixed boundaries. The thermal buckling of locally heated laminated plates is generally not checked in practical applications unless the heated area exceeds approximately 10% of the total area of the plates. The stronger the boundary constraint is, the greater the influence of the heated area is on the vibrational frequencies of the composite laminated plate.

AbstractThe nonlinear vibrations of composite laminated plates with time-dependent base excitation and boundary conditions are investigated. According to the von Kármán nonlinear plate theory, the dynamic equations of motion of the laminated plates are established. The nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed to the nonlinear ordinary differential ones using the Bubnov-Galerkin’s  method. The primary resonance and the primary parametric resonance of the laminated plate with time-dependent boundary conditions are investigated by means of the method of multiple scales. The validity of the present theoretical method is verified by comparing the amplitude–frequency relationship curves acquired from the present theoretical method with those calculated from the numerical simulation. The amplitude–frequency characteristic curves and the displacement time histories for different ply angles of the composite laminated plate are analyzed. The effects of the viscous damping factor and the transverse displacement excitation on the amplitude–frequency relationship curves are also studied. The present results are helpful for the nonlinear dynamical analysis and design of the composite laminated plate with time-dependent boundary conditions.

AbstractThe nonlinear transverse vibrations of ordered and disordered two-dimensional (2D) two-span composite laminated plates are studied. Based on the von Karman's large deformation theory, the equations of motion of each-span composite laminated plate are formulated using Hamilton's principle, and the partial differential equations are discretized into nonlinear ordinary ones through the Galerkin's method. The primary resonance and 1/3 sub-harmonic resonance are investigated by using the method of multiple scales. The amplitude-frequency relations of the steady-state responses and their stability analyses in each kind of resonance are carried out. The effects of the disorder ratio and ply angle on the two different resonances are analyzed. From the numerical results, it can be concluded that disorder in the length of the two-span 2D composite laminated plate will cause the nonlinear vibration localization phenomenon, and with the increase of the disorder ratio, the vibration localization phenomenon will become more obvious. Moreover, the amplitude-frequency curves for both primary resonance and 1/3 sub-harmonic resonance obtained by the present analytical method are compared with those by the numerical integration, and satisfactory precision can be obtained for engineering applications and the results certify the correctness of the present approximately analytical solutions.

Bending analysis of thick laminated rectangular plates with various boundary conditions is presented using Generalized Differential Quadrature (GDQ) method. Based on the Reissner first order shear deformation theory, the governing equations include a system of eight first order partial differential equations in terms of unknown displacements, forces and moments. Presence of all plate variables in the governing equations provide a simple procedure to satisfy different boundary condition during application of GDQ method to obtain accurate results with relatively small number of grid points even for plates with free edges .Illustrative examples including various combinations of clamped, simply supported and free boundary condition are given to demonstrate the accuracy and convergence of the presented GDQ technique. Results are compared with other analytical and finite element predictions and show reasonably good agreement.

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are one of the advanced materials capable of withstanding the high temperature environments. The FGMs consist of the continuously varying composition of two different materials. One is an engineering ceramic to resist the thermal loading from the high-temperature environment, and the other is a light metal to maintain the structural rigidity. In the present study, the properties of the FGM plate are assumed to vary along the thickness direction according to the power law distribution, sigmoid distribution, and exponential distribution. The fundamental equations are obtained using the first order shear deformation theory and the finite element formulation is done using minimum potential energy approach. The numerical results are obtained for different distributions of FGM, volume fractions, and boundary conditions. The FGM plate is subjected to thermal environment and transverse UDL under thermal environment and the response is analysed. Numerical results are provided in nondimensional form.

Nonlinear Trends

The nonlinear trends of composite laminated plates are investigated. The governing equations of motion for the plate are derived with the von Karman strain-displacement relations for the geometric nonlinearity and the Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory. The four dimensional nonlinear averaged equations with the case of 1/2-subharmonic resonance and principal parametric resonance for the first mode and primary resonance for the second mode are obtained by applying the method of multiple scales. The frequency-response curves are analyzed under consideration of strongly coupled of two modes. The influences of the coefficients in dynamic equations and the detuning parameters on the nonlinear trend are studied, and the results indicate that the composite laminated plate may have different trends of nonlinearity under aforementioned resonance conditions. The sweep experiment is conducted to find the softening and hardening nonlinearity. The different trends are obtained when the excitation amplitude is 1.2g. The spectrums of the different stages of the test show that the change of the nonlinear trend may be caused from the sub-harmonic resonance in this test.

In this research, buckling behavior of perforated rectangular plate of symmetric and anti-symmetric laminated composite is investigated based on Finite element analysis. The presence of hole may cause redistribution of stresses in plates with reduction of stability. The aim of the current paper is to find critical buckling load by using the (FSDT) first-order shear deformation theory in concomitance with the variational energy method. The load depends on many factors like as diameter of circular hole, different boundary conditions, lay-up sequences, length/thickness ratio and angle of ply orientation. The result is shown in graphical forms for various boundary conditions.

Nonlinear Transient Response

Laminated plates are loading-bearing components that are generally connected to flexible pads and exhibit complicated mechanical responses. To investigate the geometrically nonlinear transient responses of a laminated plate with flexible pad supports, a varied constraint reaction model and a systematic numerical procedure are presented in this paper. The flexible pad supports of the plate were treated as viscoelastic boundary conditions, wherein the strip-type pad per unit length was modeled as a cantilever beam. The nonlinear Kelvin–Voigt model was developed to simulate the nonlinear viscoelastic behaviors of the flexible pads. The dynamically varied constraint reactions generated by the viscoelastic supports, which depend upon the displacement and velocity of the nodes along the plate edge, were determined by the deflection and slope equations of the beam theory used, and they were applied on the plate edges by using the nonlinear load functions. Thus, the dynamical responses of the laminated plate with viscoelastic supports were obtained. Numerical results show that the present method can effectively treat the geometrically nonlinear transient response of the laminated plate with viscoelastic supports, and it is essential to consider the effects of non-ideal boundary conditions in the nonlinear transient analysis.

This paper investigates the dynamic buckling of bi-directional (BD) functionally graded (FG) porous cylindrical shells for various boundary conditions, where the FG material is modeled by means of power law functions with even and uneven porosity distributions of ceramic and metal phases. The third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) is adopted to derive the governing equations of the problem via the Hamilton’s principle. The generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method is applied together with the Bolotin scheme as numerical strategy to solve the problem, and to draw the dynamic instability region (DIR) of the structure. A large parametric study examines the effect of different boundary conditions at the extremities of the cylindrical shell, as well as the sensitivity of the dynamic stability to different thickness-to-radius ratios, length-to-radius ratios, transverse and longitudinal power indexes, porosity volume fractions, and elastic foundation constants. Based on results, the dynamic stability of BD-FG cylindrical shells can be controlled efficiently by selecting appropriate power indexes along the desired directions. Furthermore, the DIR is highly sensitive to the porosity distribution and to the extent of transverse and longitudinal power indexes. The numerical results could be of great interest for many practical applications, as civil, mechanical or aerospace engineering, as well as for energy devices or biomedical systems.
