Treatment of the first natural frequency of a rotating nanocomposite beam reinforced with graphene platelet is discussed here. In regard of the Timoshenko beam theory hypothesis, the motion equations are acquired. The effective elasticity modulus of the rotating nanocomposite beam is specified resorting to the Halpin–Tsai micro mechanical model. The Ritz technique is utilized for the sake of discretization of the nonlinear equations of motion. The first natural frequency of the rotating nanocomposite beam prior to the buckling instability and the associated post-critical natural frequency is computed by means of a powerful iteration scheme in reliance on the Newton–Raphson method alongside the iteration strategy. The impact of adding the graphene platelet to a rotating isotropic beam in thermal ambient is discussed in detail. The impression of support conditions, and the weight fraction and the dispersion type of the graphene platelet on the acquired outcomes are studied. It is elucidated that when a beam has not undergone a temperature increment, by reinforcing the beam with graphene platelet, the natural frequency is enhanced. However, when the beam is in a thermal environment, at low-to-medium range of rotational velocity, adding the graphene platelet diminishes the first natural frequency of a rotating O-GPL nanocomposite beam. Depending on the temperature, the post-critical natural frequency of a rotating X-GPL nanocomposite beam may be enhanced or reduced by the growth of the graphene platelet weight fraction.

In the present study, a nonlocal hyperbolic shear deformation theory is developed for the static flexure, buckling and free vibration analysis of nanobeams using the nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen. The theory, which does not require shear correction factor, accounts for both small scale effects and hyperbolic variation of shear strains and consequently shear stresses through the thickness of the nanobeam. The equations of motion are derived from Hamilton's principle. Analytical solutions for the deflection, buckling load and natural frequency are presented for a simply supported nanobeam, and the obtained results are compared with those predicted by the nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory and Reddy beam theories. Present solutions can be used for the static and dynamic analyses of single-walled carbon nanotubes.

Parametric vibration of initially curved columns loaded by axial-periodic loads has received considerable attention, concluding that regions of instability exist and that excitation frequencies less than the natural frequency of the principal resonance may occur. Recent publications have cautioned against the use of curved members in machines designed for precise operation, suggesting a detrimental coupling of the longitudinal and transverse deformations. In this work, the dynamic behavior of a slider-crank mechanism with an initially curved connecting rod is investigated. Governing equations of motion are developed using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Both steady-state and transient solutions are determined, and compared with those obtained for the mechanism possessing a geometrically perfect (straight) connecting rod. A very small initial curvature is shown to cause a significantly greater steady-state response. The magnification in its transient response is shown to be even greater than that due to a straight connecting rod. Additionally, an excitation frequency less than the natural frequency is also shown to occur.

In this paper, nonlinear free vibration of a cantilever flexible shaft carrying a rigid disk at its free end (overhung rotor) is investigated. The Rayleigh beam model is used and the rotor has large amplitude vibrations. With the assumption of inextensibility, the effect of nonlinear curvature and inertia is considered. The effect of disk mass on the dynamical behavior of the system is studied in the presence and absence of gravity (horizontal and vertical rotors). By using perturbation technique (method of multiple scales), the main focus is on the influence of gravity on equations of motion and on quantities such as amplitude and damped natural frequency. Here, a different behavior is observed due to the rotor weight. Indeed, the combination effects of gyroscopic term, nonlinearity and gravity are studied on the modal behavior of the system. It is shown that the static deflection creates second order nonlinear terms and changes the nonlinear damped natural frequency. With considering of gravity, both beat and high frequency in beat phenomenon increase. With increasing of the rotor weight, the minimum value of amplitude is extremely amplified in the direction of gravity but in the other transverse direction, amplitude of vibrations decreases. In addition, it is found that the weight has directly influence on beat frequency, while the mass ratio between disk and beam affects the high frequency.

The present work deals with a homogenization procedure (HP), which is developed to reduce the problem of geometrically nonlinear free vibrations of functionally graded beams (FGB) resting on elastic nonlinear foundation with immovable ends to that of isotropic homogeneous beams with effective bending stiffness and axial stiffness parameters. The material properties of the functionally graded composites examined are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction and estimated through the rule of mixture. The theoretical model is based on the Euler-Bernouilli beam theory and the Von Kármán geometrical nonlinearity assumptions. Hamilton’s principle is applied and a multimode approach is derived to calculate the fundamental nonlinear frequency parameters, which are found to be in a good agreement with the published results.

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.

Abstract The functionally graded plates (FGP) with two new porosity distributions are examined in this paper. In this work the plate is modeled using the higher-order shear deformation plate principle. The shear correction variables are neglected. To evaluate the equations of motion, the Hamilton method will be used herein. Therefore, the free vibration analysis of FG plate is developed in this work. For porous smart plates with simply-supported sides, natural frequencies are obtained and verified with the established findings in the literature. The impact of the porosity coefficient on the normal frequencies of the plate for various thickness ratios, geometric ratios, and material properties was investigated in a thorough numerical analysis.

Multiple impacts of 2D (planar) open-loop robotic systems composed of [Formula: see text] elastic links and revolute joints are studied in this paper. The dynamic equations of motion for such systems are derived by the Gibbs-Appell recursive algorithm, while the regularized method is employed to model the impact-contact mechanism. The Timoshenko beam theory is used to model the transverse vibrations of the links. Also, both the structural damping and air damping are considered to enhance the modeling accuracy. The system joints are assumed to be frictionless and slack-free, but friction force is included for the links colliding with the ground. The [Formula: see text]-flexible-link system considered goes through a flight phase and an impact phase during its motion. In the impact phase, new equations of motion are derived by including the terms caused by the viscoelastic forces in the system’s differential equations. Owing to the extremely short acting time of the impact force, the related differential equations can be solved only via special treatment, i.e. by detecting the exact moment of impact. To this end, entering or leaving the impact phase is analyzed and controlled with high precision by a special computational algorithm presented in this work. To demonstrate the efficacy and precision of the algorithm developed, computer simulations are conducted to study the dynamic behavior of a 3-link robotic mechanism. To investigate the effect of mode shape on the elastic deformation of links, four different mode shapes are used in the simulations and their results are compared.

Abstract In this work, buckling and vibration characteristics of two-dimensional functionally graded (FG) nanobeam of nonuniform thickness subjected to in-plane and thermal loads have been analyzed within the frame work of Timoshenko beam theory. The beam is tapered by linear variation in thickness along the length. The temperature-dependent material properties of the beam are varying along thickness and length as per a power-law distribution and exponential function, respectively. The analysis has been presented using Eringen’s nonlocal theory to incorporate the size effect. Hamilton’s energy principle has been used to formulate the governing equations of motion. These resulting equations have been solved via generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) for three combinations of clamped and simply supported boundary conditions. The effect of in-plane load together with temperature variation, nonuniformity parameter, gradient indices, nonlocal parameter, and slenderness ratio on the natural frequencies is illustrated for the first three modes of vibration. The critical buckling loads in compression have been computed by putting the frequencies equal to zero. A significant contribution of in-plane load on mechanical behavior of two-directional functionally graded nanobeam with nonuniform cross section has been noticed. Results are in good accordance.

The free vibration of functionally graded (FG) beams with various boundary conditions resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation in the thermal environment is studied using the third-order shear deformation beam theory. The material properties are temperature-dependent and vary continuously through the thickness direction of the beam, based on a power-law distribution in terms of the volume fraction of the material constituents. In order to discretize the governing equations, the differential quadrature method (DQM) in conjunction with the Hamilton’s principle is adopted. The convergence of the method is demonstrated. In order to validate the results, comparisons are made with solutions available for the isotropic and FG beams. Through a comprehensive parametric study, the effect of various parameters involved on the FG beam was studied. It is concluded that the uniform temperature rise has more significant effect on the frequency parameters than the nonuniform case.
