In this work, geometrically nonlinear behavior of sandwich composite beams reinforced by carbon nanotubes is studied, taking into account the influence agglomeration (CNTs). The core homogeneous while two face sheets are made CNT with effective material properties being estimated Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka approach. A first-order shear deformable beam element formulated in context total Lagrange formu...

In this work, geometrically nonlinear static bending analysis of sandwich beams with a porous core and two skins made functionally graded materials using mesh-free method is presented. The material types the face sheets beam are chosen so that continuity between layers guaranteed. governing equation including geometric nonlinearity established via principle virtual work. This discretized into s...

Abstract When modeling dynamic structures, the quasi-static modal analysis (QSMA) approach seeks to very accurately resolve force-displacement behavior of each individual mode but neglects coupling, while many other reduced order (ROM) methods take an opposite view, capturing static and coupling using polynomials that limit fidelity with which can be captured. This work contrasts these two appr...

The paper presents a complete experimental validation of an advanced computational methodology adapted to the nonlinear post-buckling analysis of geometrically nonlinear structures in presence of uncertainty. A mean nonlinear reduced-order computational model is first obtained using an adapted projection basis. The stochastic nonlinear computational model is then constructed as a function of a ...

A numerical investigation is carried out in this work in order to evaluate the computational performance of a numerical model based on isogeometric analysis for applications on geometrically nonlinear elastodynamics. In the FEM (finite element method) practice, it is well known that the Newmark’s method is unconditionally stable for linear structural systems, but this characteristic is frequent...
