This work presents an investigation on the free vibration behavior of rotating pre-twisted functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) laminated blades/beams with an attached point mass. The considered beams are constituted of [Formula: see text] layers which are bonded perfectly and made of a mixture of isotropic polymer matrix and graphene platelets (GPLs). The weight fraction of GPLs changes in a layer-wise manner. The effective material properties of FG-GPLRC layers are computed by using the modified Halpin-Tsai model together with rule of mixture. The free vibration eigenvalue equations are developed based on the Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) using the Chebyshev–Ritz method under different boundary conditions. After validating the approach, the influences of the GPLs distribution pattern, GPLs weight fraction, angular velocity, the variation of the angle of twist along the beam axis, the ratio of attached mass to the beam mass, boundary conditions, position of attached mass, and geometry on the vibration behavior are investigated. The findings demonstrate that the natural frequencies of the rotating pre-twisted FG-GPLRC laminated beams significantly increases by adding a very small amount of GPLs into polymer matrix. It is shown that placing more GPLs near the top and bottom surfaces of the pre-twisted beam is an effective way to strengthen the pre-twisted beam stiffness and increase the natural frequencies.

In-plane free vibration of functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced nanocomposites (FG-GPLRCs) circular arches is investigated by using the two-dimensional theory of elasticity. The graphene platelets (GPLs) are dispersed along the thickness direction non-uniformly, and the material properties of the nanocomposites are evaluated by the modified Halpin-Tsai multi-scaled model and the rule of mixtures. A state-space method combined with differential quadrature technique is employed to derive the governing equation for in-plane free vibration of FG-GPLRCs circular arch, the semi-analytical solutions are obtained for various end conditions. An exact solution of FG-GPLRCs circular arch with simply-supported ends is also presented as a benchmark to valid the present numerical method. Numerical examples are performed to study the effects of GPL distribution patterns, weight fraction and dimensions, geometric parameters and boundary conditions of the circular arch on the natural frequency in details.

Because of promoted thermomechanical performance of functionally graded graphene platelet–reinforced composite ultralight porous structural components, this article investigates bending and free vibration behavior of functionally graded graphene platelet–reinforced composite porous cylindrical shell based on the theory of elasticity. Effective elasticity modulus of the composite is estimated with the aid of modified version of Halpin–Tsai micromechanics. Rule of mixtures is used to obtain mass density and Poisson’s ratio of the graphene platelet–reinforced composite shell. An analytical solution is introduced to obtain the natural frequencies and static behavior of simply supported cylindrical shell by applying the state-space technique along the radial coordinate and Fourier series expansion along the circumferential and axial direction. In addition, differential quadrature method is used to explore the response of the cylindrical shell in the other cases of boundary conditions. Validity of the applied approach is examined by comparing the numerical results with those published in the available literature. A comprehensive parametric study is conducted on the effects of different combinations of graphene platelets distribution patterns and porosity distribution patterns, boundary conditions, graphene platelets weight fraction, porosity coefficient, and geometry of the shell (such as mid-radius to thickness ratio and length to mid-radius ratio) on the bending and free vibration behavior of the functionally graded graphene platelet–reinforced composite porous cylindrical shell. The results of this study provide useful practical tips for engineers designing composite structures.

The aim of this article is to find an exact analytical solution for free vibration characteristics of thin functionally graded rectangular plates with different boundary conditions. The governing equations of motion are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Using an analytical method, three partial differential equations of motion are reformulated into two new decoupled equations. Based on the Navier solution, a closed-form solution is presented for natural frequencies of functionally graded simply supported rectangular plates. Then, considering Levy-type solution, natural frequencies of functionally graded plates are presented for various boundary conditions. Three mode shapes of a functionally graded rectangular plate are also presented for different boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of aspect ratio, thickness—length ratio, power law index, and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of functionally graded rectangular plates are discussed in details. Finally, it has been shown that the effects of in-plane displacements on natural frequencies of functionally graded plates under different boundary conditions have been studied.

In this article, the differential quadrature method (DQM) is used to study the free vibration of functionally graded (FG) thin annular sector plates. The material properties of the FG-plate are assumed to vary continuously through the thickness, according to the power-law distribution. The governing differential equations of motion are derived based on the classical plate theory and solved numerically using DQM. The natural frequencies of thin FG annular sector plates under various combinations of clamped, free, and simply supported boundary conditions are presented for the first time. To ensure the accuracy of the method, the natural frequencies of a pure metallic plate are calculated and compared with those existing in the literature for the homogeneous plate. In this case, the result shows very good agreement. For the FG-plates, the effects of boundary conditions, volume fraction exponent, and variation of Poisson's ratio on the free vibrational behaviour of the plate are studied.

Governing Equations

In this study, the vibration of functionally graded porous truncated conical shell reinforced with graphene platelets (GPLs) is investigated. The GPLs nanofillers and pores are considered to be uniform and nonuniform throughout the thickness direction. Using Hamilton’s principle, the governing equations are derived based on Love’s first approximation theory. The generalized differential quadrature method is applied to solve the governing equations of motion and to obtain the natural frequencies of the shells for various boundary conditions. Applying the Halpin–Tsai model and the rule of mixture, the effective elastic modulus, the Poisson’s ratio and the density of nanocomposite shell reinforced with GPLs are computed. The effects of porosity coefficients, distribution patterns of porosity, GPL weight fraction, geometry and size of GPLs, semi-vertex angle as well as boundary conditions on the natural frequency of the system are analyzed. It was observed in the results that the shells with symmetric porosity distribution reinforced by graphene platelet pattern A predict the highest natural frequencies. Furthermore, it was found that the natural frequencies of nanocomposite conical shell can be decreased by increasing the porosity coefficient. Besides, the geometry and size of GPLs as well as weight fraction of GPLs have significant effects on the natural frequencies.

AbstractIn this paper, free vibration analysis of functionally graded rectangular plate is investigated based on the first order shear deformation theory and the effect of in-plane displacements on the natural frequencies of such plate is studied. The governing equations of motion are obtained, which are five coupled partial differential equations, without any simplification. Some mathematical manipulation leads us to decouple the equations. The decoupled equations are solved by the Levy's method for various boundary conditions. As the results show, in some boundary conditions the in-plane displacements cause a drastic change of frequencies. In other words, neglecting the in-plane displacement, which is assumed in some papers, is not proper for these boundary conditions. However, in the other boundary conditions, the natural frequencies are not significantly affected by the in-plane displacements. The results for various boundary conditions are discussed in detail and some interpretations for these differences are provided. Besides to the comparisons, the accurate natural frequencies of the plate for six different boundary conditions with several aspect ratios, thickness-length ratios and power law indices are presented. The natural frequencies of Mindlin functionally graded rectangular plates with considering the in-plane displacements are reported for the first time and can be used as benchmark.

This paper presents free vibration analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) beams with different boundary conditions, using RKPM (Reproducing Kernel Particle Method), which is a meshless method. System of equations of motion is derived by using Lagrange’s method under the assumption of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Boundary conditions of beam are taken into account by using Lagrange multipliers. It is assumed that material properties of the beam vary continuously in the thickness direction according to the power-law form. RKPM is applied to obtain eigenvalue equation of vibration and natural frequencies are obtained. It should be noted that for special cases where the beam is uniform, natural frequencies match nicely with theoretical prediction.

This article presents the free vibration of piezoelectric functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite conical panels with elastically restrained boundary conditions. The material properties of carbon nanotube-reinforced composites are assumed to be temperature-dependent and are obtained using the extended rule of mixture. First-order shear deformation theory is adopted to obtain the kinematics of the hybrid panels, and the boundary spring technique is used to implement arbitrary boundary conditions. Meanwhile, two types of electrical boundary conditions, closed circuit and open circuit, are considered for the free surfaces of the piezoelectric layers. The complete sets of electro-mechanically coupled governing equations are obtained using the Rayleigh–Ritz procedure with the Chebyshev polynomial basis functions. The resultant eigenvalue problem is solved to obtain natural frequencies and mode shapes of the hybrid panels. Convergence and comparison studies have been conducted to verify the stability and accuracy of the proposed method. Several numerical examples are examined to reveal the influences of the carbon nanotube volume fractions, carbon nanotube distribution types, boundary conditions, geometrical parameters, and temperatures on the natural frequencies of the hybrid panel. Moreover, the mode shapes of the hybrid panels under various boundary conditions are also presented.

Plates are commonly used in many engineering disciplines, including aerospace. With the continuous improvement in the capacity of high value-added airplanes, large transport aircrafts, and fighter planes that have high strength, high toughness, and corrosion resistance have gradually become the development direction of airplane plate structure production and research. The strength and stability of metal plate structures can be improved by adding reinforced materials. This paper studies graphene platelets (GPLs) reinforced with a free vibration porous composite plate. The porous plate is constructed with a multi-layer model in a metal matrix containing uniform or non-uniformly distributed open-cell internal pores. Considering the random and directional arrangement of graphene platelets in the matrix, the elastic modulus of graphene composites was estimated using the Halpin–Tsai micromechanical model, and the vibration frequencies of graphene composite were calculated using the differential quadrature method. The effects of the total number of layers, GPL distribution pattern, porosity coefficient, GPL weight fraction, and boundary conditions on the free vibration frequency of GPLs reinforced porous composite plates are studied, and the accuracy of the conclusions are verified by the finite element software.

As there is a gap in literature about out-of-plane vibrations of curved and variable cross-sectioned beams, the aim of this study is to analyze the free out-of-plane vibrations of curved beams which are symmetrically and nonsymmetrically tapered. Out-of-plane free vibration of curved uniform and tapered beams with additional mass is also investigated. Finite element method is used for all analyses. Curvature type is assumed to be circular. For the different boundary conditions, natural frequencies of both symmetrical and unsymmetrical tapered beams are given together with that of uniform tapered beam. Bending, torsional, and rotary inertia effects are considered with respect to no-shear effect. Variations of natural frequencies with additional mass and the mass location are examined. Results are given in tabular form. It is concluded that (i) for the uniform tapered beam there is a good agreement between the results of this study and that of literature and (ii) for the symmetrical curved tapered beam there is also a good agreement between the results of this study and that of a finite element model by using MSC.Marc. Results of out-of-plane free vibration of symmetrically tapered beams for specified boundary conditions are addressed.
