Exact solutions are derived for three-dimensional, anisotropic, linearly magneto-electroelastic, simply-supported, and multilayered rectangular plates under static loadings. While the homogeneous solutions are obtained in terms of a new and simple formalism that resemble the Stroh formalism, solutions for multilayered plates are expressed in terms of the propagator matrix. The present solutions...

ABSTRCT: Elastic bearings have been used on simply supported bridges on high-speed railway in Taiwan to isolate train-induced vibration. However, their influence on dynamic behavior of the vehicle and bridge has not been fully investigated, and their vibration attenuation has not been quantificationally discussed. In this study, spring-damper elements with 12 degrees of freedom are established ...

An analytical solution for nonlinear vibration of an initially stressed beam with elastic end restraints resting on a nonlinear elastic foundation is obtained. As a first step in solving nonlinear vibration equation, the linear vibration mode functions for a beam with elastic end restraints resting on a linear elastic foundation are obtained. Then, the nonlinear vibration equation is solved by ...

The aim of the paper is to analyze electro-thermo nonlinear vibration of a double-piezoelectric composite microplate-system (DPCMPS) based on nonlocal piezoelasticity theory. The two microplates are assumed to be connected by an enclosing elastic medium which is simulated by Pasternak foundation. Both of smart composite microplates are made of poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) reinforced by zigza...

Graphene has received significant attention due to its excellent mechanical properties, which has resulted in the emergence of graphene-based nano-electro-mechanical system such as nanoresonators. The nonlinear vibration of a graphene resonator and its application to mass sensing (based on nonlinear oscillation) have been poorly studied, although a graphene resonator is able to easily reach the...

in this study, thermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration of a polyethylene (pe) cylindrical shell embedded in an elastic foundation was investigated. the shell is reinforced by armchair carbon nanotubes (cnts) where characteristics of the equivalent composite being determined using mori-tanaka model. the elastic medium is simulated using the spring constant of the winkler-type,  . employing nonline...

In this paper we have studied the effect of magneto-static field onpropagation of thermal wave generated in metal by pulsed laser. In fact this interactiongenerate acoustic wave in different mechanisms. However, always the commonmechanism in the interactions of laser pulse and metal is the thermo-elastic wavegeneration. Applying the suitable magneto-static field on the s...
