in the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. in the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are tr...

free vibration analysis of higher-order shear deformation beam resting on one- and two-parameter elasticfoundation is studied using differential transform method (dtm) as a part of a calculation procedure. first,the governing differential equations of beam are derived in a general form considering the shear-freeboundary conditions (zero shear stress conditions at the top and bottom of a beam). ...

This study is concentrated on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a simple three-member space frame coupled with a dynamic vibration absorber. The dynamic vibration absorber is modeled as a six-degree-of-freedom mass-spring system. For the first time, the free vibration of an elastic structure with a six-degree-of-freedom mass-spring system is found. Each member of the space frame has un...

the the main objective of this research paper is to present 3-d elasticity solution for free vibration analysis of elastically supported continuously graded carbon nanotube-reinforced (cgcntr) annular plates. the volume fractions of oriented, straight single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction. an equivalent continuum model based on the eshelby-m...

this paper consists of three sections. in the first section an efficient method is used for decomposition of the canonical matrices associated with repetitive structures. to this end, cylindrical coordinate system, as well as a special numbering scheme were employed. in the second section, divide and conquer method have been used for eigensolution of these structures, where the matrices are in ...

Carbon nanoscroll (CNS) is a graphene sheet rolled into a spiral structure with great potential for different applications in nanotechnology. In this paper, an equivalent open shell model is presented to study the vibration behavior of a CNS with arbitrary boundary conditions. The equivalent parameters used for modeling the carbon nanotubes are implemented to simulate the CNS. The interactions ...

Pipe joints have been widely utilized in industrial plants, where dynamic load of vibration is considerably harmful for sealing performance. However, there is a lock of design codes and experimental procedures developed for vibration testing of pipe joints. This paper proposes an experimental setup for testing of pipe joints, which use metal gaskets, in vibratory conditions. Also, a flexible pi...
