The Riesz basis property of the generalized eigenvector system of a Timoshenko beam with boundary feedback is studied. Firstly, two auxiliary operators are introduced, and the Riesz basis property of their eigenvector systems is proved. This property is used to show that the generalized eigenvector system of a Timoshenko beam with some linear boundary feedback forms a Riesz basis in the corresp...

In this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. The Timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. T...

Purpose – To perform the flapwise bending vibration analysis of a rotating cantilever Timoshenko beam. Design/methodology/approach – Kinetic and potential energy expressions are derived step by step. Hamiltonian approach is used to obtain the governing equations of motion. Differential transform method (DTM) is applied to solve these equations.

This paper studies mechanical buckling of functionally graded beams subjected to axial compressive load that is simply supported at both ends lies on a continuous elastic foundation. The displacement field of beam is assumed based on EngesserTimoshenko beam theory. Applying the Hamilton's principle, the equilibrium equation is established.

This study investigates that the sound wave propagation of multiferroic thermo elastic Nanofibers under the influence of surface effect and parametric excitation via Timoshenko form of beam equations. The equation of analytical model is obtained for Nanofiber through shear and rotation effect. The solution of the problem is reached through the coupled time harmonic equations in flexural directi...

This paper features the modelling and design of a type of multirate output feedback based controller (Fast Output Sampling Feedback FOS) to control the flexural vibrations of a smart flexible Timoshenko cantilever beam for a Single Input Single Output (SISO) case by retaining the first 2 dominant vibratory modes. Piezoelectric patches are bonded as sensor / actuator to the master structure at d...

A Timoshenko beam theory for layered orthotropic beams is presented. The theory consists of a novel combination of three key components: average displacement and rotation variables that provide the kinematic description of the beam, stress and strain moments used to represent the average stress and strain state in the beam, and the use of exact axially-invariant plane stress solutions to calibr...

A nonlocal anisotropic elastic shell model of a microtubule (MT) has been established in this paper. The proposed model exactly expresses the persistence length, the growth rate for buckling and the buckling load which include the small scale effects in a closed form. The predicted results of our model indicate that the length-dependence of the persistence length is sensitive to the small scale...

Analytical relations between the critical buckling load of a functionally graded material (FGM) Timoshenko beam and that of the corresponding homogeneous Euler–Bernoulli beam subjected to axial compressive load have been derived for clamped–clamped (C–C), simply supported–simply supported (S–S) and clamped–free (C–F) edges. However, no such relation is found for clamped–simply supported (C–S) b...
