This paper deals with the stochastic nonlinear free vibration response of functionally graded materials (FGMs) beam subjected to thermal loadings with uncertain material properties subjected to uniform and nonuniform temperature changes with temperature independent (TID) and dependent (TD) material properties. System properties such as material properties of each constituents material and volume fraction index are taken as independent random input variables. The basic formulation is based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) with von-Karman nonlinear strains using modified C0 continuity. A direct iterative based nonlinear finite element method in conjunction with first order perturbation technique (FOPT) is used for FGMs beam to compute the second order statistics (mean and coefficient of variation) of the nonlinear fundamental frequency. The present outlined approach has been validated with the results available in literatures and independent Monte Carlo simulation (MCS).

The present work investigates the free vibration behavior of double-tapered functionally graded beams rotating in thermal environment, using an improved mathematical model. The functional gradation for ceramic–metal compositions, following power-law, is considered to be symmetric with respect to the mid-plane, leading to metal-rich core and ceramic-rich outer surfaces of the beam. The temperature dependence of the material properties are considered using Touloukian model. The nonlinearity in strain–displacement relationships for both the axial and transverse shear strains are considered. Firstly, the governing equations for deformed beam configuration under time-independent centrifugal loading are obtained using minimum total potential energy principle, and the solution is obtained following Ritz method. Then the free vibration problem of the centrifugally deformed beam is formulated employing Lagrange’s principle and considering tangent stiffness of the deformed beam configuration. Coriolis effect is considered in the mathematical model, and the governing equations are transformed to the state-space for obtaining an eigenvalue problem. The results for the first two modes of both chord-wise and flap-wise vibrations are presented in nondimensional plane to show the effects of taperness parameter, root-offset parameter, volume fraction exponent, operating temperature, and functionally graded material composition. The results in comparative form are presented for both temperature-dependent and temperature-independent material properties.

AbstractThis paper deals with the investigation of nonlinear free vibration behavior of elastically supported carbon nanotube reinforced composite (CNTRC) beam subjected to thermal loading with random system properties. Material properties of each constituent’s material, volume fraction exponent and foundation parameters are considered as uncorrelated Gaussian random input variables. The beam is supported by a Pasternak foundation with Winkler cubic nonlinearity. The higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) with von-Karman non-linearity is used to formulate the governing equation using Hamilton principle. Convergence and validation study is carried out through the comparison with the available results in the literature for authenticity and accuracy of the present approach used in the analysis. First order perturbation technique (FOPT),Second order perturbation technique (SOPT) and Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) methods are employed to investigate the effect of geometric configuration, volume fraction exponent, foundation parameters, distribution of reinforcement and thermal loading on nonlinear vibration characteristics CNTRC beam.The present work signifies the accurate analysis of vibrational behaviour influences by different random variables. Results are presented in terms of mean, variance (COV) and probability density function (PDF) for various aforementioned parameters.

Free vibration analysis of functionally graded elastic, rectangular, and simply supported (diaphragm) plates is presented based on a higher-order shear and normal deformation theory (HOSNT). Although functionally graded materials (FGMs) are highly heterogeneous in nature, they are generally idealized as continua with mechanical properties changing smoothly with respect to the spatial coordinates. The material properties of functionally graded (FG) plates are assumed here to be varying through the thickness of the plate in a continuous manner. The Poisson ratios of the FG plates are assumed to be constant, but their Young's modulii and densities vary continuously in the thickness direction according to the volume fraction of constituents which is mathematically modeled as a power law function. The equations of motion are derived using Hamilton's principle for the FG plates on the basis of a HOSNT assuming varying material properties. Numerical solutions are obtained by the use of Navier solution method. The accuracy of the numerical solutions is first established through comparison with the exact three-dimensional (3D) elasticity solutions and the present solutions are then compared with available solutions of other models.

The problem of geometrically nonlinear free vibration of a clamped-clamped functionally graded beam containing an open edge crack in its center is studied in this paper. The study is based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and Von Karman geometric nonlinearity assumptions. The cracked section is modeled by an elastic spring connecting two intact segments of the beam. It is assumed that material properties of the functionally graded composites are graded in the thickness direction and estimated through the rule of mixture. The homogenisation method is used to reduce the problem to that of isotropic homogeneous cracked beam. Direct iterative method is employed for solving the eigenvalue equation for governing the frequency nonlinear vibration, in order to show the effect of the crack depth and the influences of the volume fraction on the dynamic response.

In the present article, a higher order shear deformation theory is used to develop a finite element model for the free vibration analysis of a rotating functionally graded material plate in the thermal environment. The model is based on an eight-noded isoparametric element with seven degrees-of-freedom per node. The material properties are temperature dependent and graded along its thickness according to a simple power law distribution in terms of volume fraction of the constituents. The general displacement equation provides C0 continuity, and the transverse shear strain undergoes parabolic variation through the thickness of the plate. Therefore, the shear correction factor is not used in this theory. The obtained results are compared with the published results in the literature to determine the accuracy of the method. The effects of various parameters like hub radius, rotation speed, aspect ratio, thickness ratio, volume fraction index, and temperature on the frequency of rotating plate are investigated.

Bidirectional functionally graded material (2D-FGM) plates have mechanical properties that vary continuously in both the thickness and one-edge directions; these plates are more and more widely used in design and engineering applications. When these structures are subjected to strong loads, they can be largely deformed; therefore, nonlinear calculations, in this case, are necessary. In this paper, nonlinear static bending and nonlinear free vibration behaviors of 2D-FGM plates are studied by using the finite element method based on the third-order shear deformation theory; the Newton-Raphson method is used to solve this problem. The accuracy of this approach is confirmed by comparing the results with respect to other papers. The effects of some numerical aspect ratios such as volume fraction index and thickness-to-length ratio on nonlinear static bending and free vibration of the plates are explored. This study shows that there is a big difference between the numerical results obtained from the nonlinear problem and those from the linear one.

Nonlinear free vibration of stiffened functionally graded plates is presented by using the finite element method based on the new C0 third-order shear deformation theory. The material properties are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction by a power-law distribution. Based on the Von Karman theory and the third-order shear deformation theory, the nonlinear governing equations of motion are derived from the Hamilton’s principle. An iterative procedure based on the Newton-Raphson method is employed in computing the natural frequencies and mode shape. The comparison between these solutions and the other available ones suggests that this procedure is characterized by accuracy and efficiency.
