VIBRATION AND SOUND RADIATION OF AN ASYMMETRIC LAMINATED PLATE IN THERMAL ENVIRONMENTS

Analytical studies on the vibration and sound radiation characteristics of an asymmetric laminated rectangular plate are carried out in this paper. Theoretical formulations, in which the effects of thermal environments are taken into account, are derived for the vibration and sound radiation based on both first-order shear deformation plate theory and Rayleigh integral. It is found that the natural frequencies, the resonant amplitudes of vibration response and the sound pressure level decrease with the temperature rising. The natural frequencies of asymmetric plates are smaller than those of symmetric plates and the velocity responses of asymmetric plates are larger than those of symmetric plates.     

Three-dimensional vibration analysis of thick rectangular plates using Chebyshev polynomial and Ritz method

This paper describes a method for free vibration analysis of rectangular plates with any thicknesses, which range from thin, moderately thick to very thick plates. It utilises admissible functions comprising the Chebyshev polynomials multiplied by a boundary function. The analysis is based on a linear, small-strain, three-dimensional elasticity theory. The proposed technique yields very accurate natural frequencies and mode shapes of rectangular plates with arbitrary boundary conditions. A very simple and general programme has been compiled for the purpose. For a plate with geometric symmetry, the vibration modes can be classified into symmetric and antisymmetric ones in that direction. In such a case, the computational cost can be greatly reduced while maintaining the same level of accuracy. Convergence studies and comparison have been carried out taking square plates with four simply-supported edges as examples. It is shown that the present method enables rapid convergence, stable numerical operation and very high computational accuracy. Parametric investigations on the vibration behaviour of rectangular plates with four clamped edges have also been performed in detail, with respect to different thickness-side ratios, aspect ratios and Poisson’s ratios. These results may serve as benchmark solutions for validating approximate two-dimensional theories and new computational techniques in future.     

Propagation characteristics of thermoelastic waves in piezoelectric (6 mm class) rotating plate

The propagation of Lamb waves in a homogeneous, transversely isotropic (6 mm class), piezothermoelastic plate rotating with uniform angular velocity about normal to its boundary has been investigated. The generalized (non-classical) theories of thermoelasticity in contrast to Sharma and Pal [Sharma, J.N., Pal, M., 2004. Lamb wave propagation in transversely isotropic piezothermoelastic plate. J. Sound Vib. 270, 587–610] have been used to investigate the problem. The surfaces of the plate are subjected to stress free, thermally insulated/isothermal and electrically shorted boundary conditions. Secular equations for wave propagation modes in the plate are derived from a coupled system of governing partial differential equations of linear piezothermoelasticity. After obtaining the complex characteristic roots with the help of Descartes' algorithm, the transcendental secular equations have been solved by functional iteration numerical technique to compute phase velocity and attenuation coefficient. Finally, in order to illustrate the analytical development, numerical solution of secular equations is carried out for PZT-5A piezo-thermoelastic material. The corresponding simulated results of various physical quantities such as phase velocity, attenuation coefficients, specific loss factor of energy dissipation, thermo-mechanical coupling factor and relative frequency shifts have been presented graphically for both rotating and non-rotating plates for comparison purpose. There is a scope for extension of the present work to other classes of piezo/pyroelectric crystals. The study will be useful in design and construction of gyroscope, rotation sensors, temperature sensors and other pyro/piezoelectric surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices.     

Closed-form solutions for free vibration of rectangular FGM thin plates resting on elastic foundation

This article presents closed-form solutions for the frequency analysis of rectangular functionally graded material(FGM) thin plates subjected to initially in-plane loads and with an elastic foundation. Based on classical thin plate theory, the governing differential equations are derived using Hamilton's principle. A neutral surface is used to eliminate stretching–bending coupling in FGM plates on the basis of the assumption of constant Poisson's ratio. The resulting governing equation of FGM thin plates has the same form as homogeneous thin plates. The separation-ofvariables method is adopted to obtain solutions for the free vibration problems of rectangular FGM thin plates with separable boundary conditions, including, for example, clamped plates. The obtained normal modes and frequencies are in elegant closed forms, and present formulations and solutions are validated by comparing present results with those in the literature and finite element method results obtained by the authors. A parameter study reveals the effects of the power law index n and aspect ratio a/b on frequencies.     

On a method for determining the fixing conditions for a rectangular plate from the natural frequencies

We prove the duality of solutions for the problem of determining the boundary conditions on two opposite sides of a rectangular plate from the frequency spectrum of its bending vibrations. A method for determining the boundary conditions on two opposite sides of a rectangular plate from nine natural frequencies is obtained. The results of numerical experiments justifying the theoretical conclusions of the paper are presented. Rectangular plates are widely used in various technical fields. They serve as printed circuit boards and header plates, bridging plates, aircraft and ship skin, and parts of various mechanical structures [1–4]. If the plate fixing cannot be inspected visually, then one can use the natural bending vibration frequencies to find faults in the plate fixing. For circular and annular plates, methods for testing the plate fixing were found in [5–7], where it was shown that the type of fixing of a circular or annular plate can be determined uniquely from the natural bending vibration frequencies. The following question arises: Is it possible to determine the type of fixing of a rectangular plate on two opposite sides of the plate from the natural bending vibration frequencies if the other two sides are simply supported? Since the opposite sides of the plate are equivalent to each other, a plate with “rigid restraint—free edge” fixing will sound exactly the same as a plate with “free edge—rigid restraint” fixing. Hence we cannot say that the type of fixing of a rectangular plate on two opposite sides can be uniquely determined from its natural bending vibration frequencies. But it turns out that we can speak of duality in the solution of this problem. Here we observe an analogy with the problem of determining the rigidity coefficients of springs for elastic fixing of a string [8]: the rigidity coefficients of the springs are determined by the natural frequencies uniquely up to permutations of the springs.     

Nonlinear thickness-shear vibration of an infinite piezoelectric plate with flexoelectricity based on the method of multiple scales

This paper presents a nonlinear thickness-shear vibration model for onedimensional infinite piezoelectric plate with flexoelectricity and geometric nonlinearity. The constitutive equations with flexoelectricity and governing equations are derived from the Gibbs energy density function and variational principle. The displacement adopted here is assumed to be antisymmetric through the thickness due to the thickness-shear vibration mode. Only the shear strain gradient through the thickness is considered in the present model. With geometric nonlinearity, the governing equations are converted into differential equations as the function of time by the Galerkin method. The method of multiple scales is employed to obtain the solution to the nonlinear governing equation with first order approximation. Numerical results show that the nonlinear thickness-shear vibration of piezoelectric plate is size dependent, and the flexoelectric effect has significant influence on the nonlinear thickness-shear vibration frequencies of micro-size thin plates. The geometric nonlinearity also affects the thickness-shear vibration frequencies greatly. The results show that flexoelectricity and geometric nonlinearity cannot be ignored in design of accurate high-frequency piezoelectric devices.     

Natural frequencies of composite plates with tailored thermal residual-stresses

Thermal residual-stresses introduced during manufacture and their effect on the natural frequencies and vibration modes of stringer stiffened composite plates is investigated. The principal idea in the work is to include stiffeners on the perimeter of a composite plate in which the laminate design of the stiffeners and plate are different. Such an arrangement yields manufacturing induced thermal residual-stresses; these stresses result from the difference in manufacturing and operating temperatures as well as the difference in thermal expansion coefficients and elastic properties of the plate and the stiffeners. The analysis is based on an enhanced Reissner–Mindlin plate theory and involves two separate calculations. In the first, the thermal residual-stress state is determined for an unconstrained plate. In the second, the free vibration problem is solved; thermal effects from the first calculation are included by way of nonlinear membrane-bending coupling which in turn defines the free vibration reference state. The problem is solved using a 16-node bi-cubic Lagrange element in a finite element formulation. Three different plate-stiffener geometries are used to illustrate the effects of stringer size, stringer placement and temperature difference. Two principal results are obtained: first, it is shown that thermal residual-stresses can have a significant effect on the natural frequencies; secondly, thermal residual-stresses can be tailored to increase natural frequencies. Therefore it is concluded that an evaluation of these stresses and a judicious analysis of their effects must be included in the design of this class of composite structures.     

An active control model of laminated piezothermoelastic plate

After the Hamilton principle for thermo-mechanical–electric coupling problem is derived, the third-order shear deformation theory is extended to encompass piezothermoelastic laminated plates. Based on the velocity feedback control, a model for the active vibration control of laminated plates with piezothermoelastic sensor/actuator is established. An analytical solution is obtained for the case of general forces acting on a simply supported piezothermoelastic laminated plate. Numerical results are presented. The factors that influence the controlled responses of the plate are examined.     

Buckling and vibration of rectangular laminates with cut off regions

The pure global buckling and vibration of four sides simply-supported as well as clamped orthotropic rectangular laminates having multiple rectangular cut off regions that are symmetric with respect to mid-plane have been studied by treating the remaining cut off regions as uniform plates with reduced stiffnesses. The variation of stiffness of the plate is represented by Fourier series. Some numerical results for the pure global buckling bad prediction due to its reduced flexural stiffness for typical cases of rectangular middle-plane symmetric cut off regions are presented.     

DSC-Ritz element method for vibration analysis of rectangular Mindlin plates with mixed edge supports

Based on Mindlin's first-order shear deformable plate theory, a DSC-Ritz element method is developed for the free vibration analysis of moderately thick rectangular plates with mixed supporting edges. The rationale of the present approach is not only to apply the discrete singular convolution (DSC) delta type wavelet kernel as a trial function with the Ritz method, but also to incorporate the method in finite elements in order to handle the mixed boundary constraints. The approach is novel and flexible as it passes through a bottleneck of the global DSC-Ritz method in treating the kinematic supporting edges with assorted discontinuities. A series of numerical simulations for rectangular Mindlin plates with various edge support discontinuities, plate thicknesses and aspect ratios are presented. For verification, the vibration frequencies thus established are directly compared with those reported in the open literature. New sets of numerical results for several other cases of moderately thick plates with mixed simply supported, clamped and free edges are presented and discussed in detail.
