This paper aims to explore the working mechanism of sandwich-like meta-plates by periodically attaching nonlinear mass-beam-spring resonators for low-frequency wave attenuation. The MBS resonator consists a mass, cantilever beam, and spring provide negative stiffness in transverse vibration resonator; this is tunable changing parameters spring. Considering resonator, energy method applied obtai...

Magnetorheological fluid (MRF) sandwich beams belong to a class of adaptive that consists MRF sandwiched between two or more face layers and have great prospective for use in semi-active control beam vibrations due their superior vibration suppression capabilities. The composition has strong influence on the properties hence affects characteristics beam. In this work, six samples (MRFs) compose...

Piezoelectric actuators and sensors have been broadly used for design of smart structures over the last two decades. Different theoretical assumptions have been considered in order to model these structures by the researchers. In this paper, an enhanced piezolaminated sandwich beam finite element model is presented. The facing layers follow the Euler-Bernoulli assumption while the core layers a...

A graph G = (V,E) is a chordal probe graph if its vertices can be partitioned into two sets, P (probes) and N (non-probes), where N is a stable set and such that G can be extended to a chordal graph by adding edges between non-probes. We give several characterizations of chordal probe graphs, first, in the case of a fixed given partition of the vertices into probes and non-probes, and second, i...

A graph G s = (V , E s) is a sandwich for a pair of graphs G t = (V , E t) and G = (V , E) if E t ⊆ E s ⊆ E. A sandwich problem asks for the existence of a sandwich graph having an expected property. In a seminal paper, Golumbic et al. [Graph sandwich problems, J. Algorithms 19 (1995) 449–473] present many results on sub-families of perfect graphs. We are especially interested in comparability ...

This paper investigates the bending, vibration, and buckling behaviour of functionally graded (FG) curved sandwich beams using a global–local refined shear deformation theory. Material properties these are varied through thickness according to power-law distribution. A beam element with combination Hermite cubic quadratic Lagrange shape functions is developed solve problems. The obtained result...
