In this paper, axisymmetric free vibration analysis of a circular Nano-plate having variable thickness was studied. The variation in thickness of plate was considered as a linearly in radial direction. Nonlocal elasticity theory was utilized to take into account size-dependent effects. Ritz functions was utilized to obtain the frequency equations for simply supported and clamped boundary. To ve...

Abstract  In this paper , the nonlinear the nonlinear free and forced axisymmetric vibration of a thin circular functionally graded plate with rigid core is formulated in terms of von-Karman’s dynamic equation , and a semi-analytical approach is developed.Functionally graded material (FGM) properties vary through the thickness of the plate.FGM s are spatial composites within which material prop...

The dynamic behaviour of a circular plate in contact with fluid and resting on two-parameter elastic foundations is of interest in the field of geotechnics, structure, highway, railway, oil and gas and mechanical engineering. In this work, the dynamic behaviour of circular plate in contact with fluid and resting on Winkler and Pasternak foundations is investigated. The coupled differential equa...

The present study provides a concise description of wave propagation in cellular sandwich panels. A novel approach of damage detection based on mode conversion is proposed which can be useful for detecting relatively small damages in cellular sandwich structures using high frequency guided waves. The new methodology applies the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and the cosine formula to extrac...

structural sandwich beams are widely used because of their high specific stiffness and strength, noise reduction, thermal insulation and impact energy absorption characteristics. conventional manufacturing method of composite sandwich structures is completed by a separate adhesive joining stage by which the composite faces are joined to the core. in this investigation, liquid phase sintering in...

In order to better exploit the natural cork available in Algeria, an experimental characterisation of a jute/ epoxy–cork sandwich material to impact and indentation was undertaken. The aim of this work is to evaluate the impact energy and cork density influence over the sandwich plate damage behaviours by instrumented static and dynamic tests. The results show that the onset damage force, the m...

The present work is aimed at analyzing the thermoelastic disturbances in a circular plate of finite thickness and infinite extent subjected to constant initial temperature and axisymmetric heat supply. Integral transform technique is used. Analytic solutions for temperature, displacement and stresses are derived within the context of unified system of equations in generalized thermoelasticity i...

in this paper, the non-linear dynamic response of novel steel sandwich panel with hollow i-core subjected to blast loading was studied. special emphasis is placed on the evaluation of midpoint displacements and energy dissipation of the models. several parameters such as boundary conditions, strain rate, mesh dependency and asymmetrical loading are considered in this study. the material and geo...
