In the present study, vibration of cylindrical laminates with different layers and angles were studied. In order to actuate and polarize in radial direction, a piezoelectric layer was located at outer surface of composite shell. Laminates were assumed long enough so that plane strain state analysis in 2D can be used properly. In order to satisfy the boundary conditions, variables in terms of Fo...

in this paper, chaotic motion analysis and its control for a non-planar non-linear cantilever beam with axial and lateral parametric excitation in the free end is accomplished. this is a new method for control of chaotic motion of a non-linear planar beam. in this survey, internal resonance of the beam is 2:1 and the initial resonance is in the outside of plane and it is assumed a sub-resonance...

In this paper, exact solution for two-plane transverse vibration analysis of axial-loaded multi-step Timoshenko rotor carrying concentrated masses is presented. Each attached element is considered to have both translational and rotational inertia. Forward and backward frequencies and corresponding modes are obtained using transfer matrix method (TMM). The effect of the angular velocity of spin,...

In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) is employed to investigate the statics and vibration problems of cracked isotropic bars and beams. Three kinds of elements namely the standard, the blended and the enriched elements are utilized to discretize the structure and model cracks. Two techniques referred as the increase of the number of Gauss integration points and the rectangle...

An analysis has been presented of the effect of elastic foundation and uniform in-plane peripheral loading on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of circular plates of varying thickness exhibiting bi-directional functionally graded characteristics, on the basis of first order shear deformation theory. The material properties of the plate are varying following a power-law in both the radial ...

There is a need for noninvasive techniques for simultaneous imaging of the stress and vibration mode shapes of nanomechanical systems in the fields of scanning probe microscopy, nanomechanical biological and chemical sensors and the semiconductor industry. Here we show a novel technique that combines a scanning laser, the beam deflection method and digital multifrequency excitation and analysis...

In this study, thermo-nonlocal vibration of double bonded graphene sheet (DBGS) subjected to 2D-magnetic field under biaxial in-plane pre-load are presented. The elastic forces between layers of graphene sheet (GS) are taken into account by Pasternak foundation and the classical plate theory (CLPT) and continuum orthotropic elastic plate are used. The nonlocal theory of Eringen and Maxwell’s re...

In comparison with the out-of-plane vibrations of annular plates, far less attention has been paid to the in-plane vibrations which may also play a vital important role in affecting the sound radiation from and power flows in a built-up structure. In this investigation, a generalized Fourier series method is proposed for the in-plane vibration analysis of annular plates with arbitrary boundary ...

The Magneto-Electro-Elastic (MEE) material exhibits pyroelectric and pyromagnetic effects under thermal environment. The effects of such pyroelectric and pyromagnetic behavior on vibration, buckling and deflection analysis of partially cracked thin MEE plate is presented and discussed in this paper. The aim of the study is to develop an analytical model for the vibration and geometrically linea...
