The dynamics of beams that undergo large displacements is analyzed in frequency domain and comparisons between models derived by isogeometric analysis and p-FEM are presented. The equation of motion is derived by the principle of virtual work, assuming Timoshenko’s theory for bending and geometrical type of nonlinearity. As a result, a nonlinear system of second order ordinary differential equa...

Transverse vibrations of Timoshenko type beams carrying a concentrated mass have been investigated. Both ends of this mass-beam system have simply supports. Hamilton Principle has been used in order to derive equation of motion . For this coupled differential equations, approximately solutions have been searched by means of Method of Multiple Scales(a perturbation method). These solutions consi...
