Direct method for analysis of flexible cantilever beam subjected to two follower forces

The static analysis of the flexible non-uniform cantilever beams under a tip-concentrated and intermediate follower forces is considered. The angles of inclination of the concentrated forces with respect to the deformed axis of the beam remain unchanged during deformation. The governing non-linear boundary-value problem is reduced to an initial-value problem by change of variables. The resulting problem can be solved without iterations. It is shown that there are no critical loads in the Euler sense (divergence) for any flexural-stiffness distribution and angles of inclination of the follower forces. In particular, if the follower forces are tangential, the rectilinear shape of the non-uniform cantilever beam is the only possible equilibrium configuration. In this paper some equilibrium configurations of the uniform cantilever under normal or tangential follower forces are presented using direct method.     

Analytical treatment of equilibrium configurations of cantilever under terminal loads using Jacobi elliptical functions

The paper provides an exact analytical solution for the equilibrium configurations of a cantilever rod subject to inclined force and tip moment acting on its free end. The solution is given in terms of Jacobi’s elliptical functions and illustrated by several numerical examples and several graphical presentations of shapes of deformed cantilevers. Possible forms of the underlying elastica of a cantilever are discussed in detail, and various simple formulas are given for calculating the characteristic dimensions of the elastica. For the case when a cantilever is subject only to applied force, three load conditions are discussed: the follower load problem, the load determination problem, and the conservative load problem. For all cases, either a formula or an effective procedure for determining the solution is provided. In particular, a new efficient procedure is given to determine all possible equilibrium shapes in the case of the conservative load problem.     

Flexural-torsional bifurcations of a cantilever beam under potential and circulatory forces I: Non-linear model and stability analysis

The stability of a cantilever elastic beam with rectangular cross-section under the action of a follower tangential force and a bending conservative couple at the free end is analyzed. The beam is herein modeled as a non-linear Cosserat rod model. Non-linear, partial integro-differential equations of motion are derived expanded up to cubic terms in the transversal displacement and torsional angle of the beam. The linear stability of the trivial equilibrium is studied, revealing the existence of buckling, flutter and double-zero critical points. Interaction between conservative and non-conservative loads with respect to the stability problem is discussed. The critical spectral properties are derived and the corresponding critical eigenspace is evaluated.     

Dynamic stability analysis and DQM for beams with variable cross-section

The present paper deals with the dynamic behaviour of a clamped beam subjected to a sub-tangential follower force at the free end. The aim of this work is to obtain the frequency–axial load relationship for a beam with a variable circular cross-section. In this way, one can identify both divergence critical loads – where the frequency goes to zero – and the flutter critical load – in correspondence with two frequencies coalescence. The numerical approach adopted for solving the partial differential equation of motion is the differential quadrature method (henceforth DQM). This method was proposed by Bellmann and Casti [Bellmann, R.E., Casti, J., 1971. Differential quadrature and long-term integration. J. Math. Anal. 34, 235–238] and has been employed recently in the solution of solid mechanics problems by Bert and Malik [Bert, C.W., Malik, M., 1996. Differential quadrature method in computational mechanics: a review. Appl. Mech. Rev., ASME, 49 (1), 1–28] and Chen et al. [Chen, W., Stritz, A.G., Bert, C.W., 1997. A new approach to the differential quadrature method for fourth-order equations. Int. J. Numer. Method Eng. 40, 1941–1956]. More precisely, a modified version of this method has been used, as proposed by De Rosa and Franciosi [De Rosa, M.A., Franciosi, C., 1998a. On natural boundary conditions and DQM. Mech. Res. Commun. 25 (3), 279–286; De Rosa, M.A., Franciosi, C., 1998b. Non classical boundary conditions and DQM. J. Sound Vibrat. 212(4), 743–748] to satisfy all the boundary conditions.Some frequencies–axial loads relationships are reported in order to show the influence of tapering on the critical loads.     

Stability and optimal shape of Pflüger micro/nano beam

This paper deals with optimal shapes against buckling of an elastic nonlocal small-scale Pflüger beams with Eringen’s model for constitutive bending curvature relationship. By use of the Pontryagin’s maximum principle the optimality condition in form of a depressed quartic equation is obtained. The shape of the lightest (having the smallest volume) simply supported beam that will support given uniformly distributed follower type of load and axial compressive force of constant intensity without buckling, is determined numerically. A special attention is paid to the influence of the characteristic small length scale parameter of the nonlocal constitutive law to both critical load and optimal shape of the analyzed beams. For the case when distributed follower type of load is zero, our results reduce to those obtained recently for compressed nonlocal beam. Also the post buckling shape of the optimally shaped rod is studied numerically.     

On buckling of cantilever rectangular plates under symmetrical edge loading

The stability of cantilever rectangular plates under the symmetrical edge loading will be studied in this paper by lite varialional calculus. We are going to find out the minimum critical loading for cantilever rectangular plates subjected to various edge loadings symmetrically on a pair of opposite free edges. We’ll discuss the least critical loadings when the buckling of rectangular plates acted on bv a pair of concentrated forces, uniformly distributed loads, locally uniform distributed loads, distributed loads in the form of triangle and a pair of concentrated couples occur respectively.     

Coupled bending-torsion vibration of a homogeneous beam with a single delamination subjected to axial loads and static end moments

Delaminations in structures may significantly reduce the stiffness and strength of the structures and may affect their vibration characteristics. As structural components, beams have been used for various purposes, in many of which beams are often subjected to axial loads and static end moments. In the present study, an analytical solution is developed to study the coupled bending-torsion vibration of a homogeneous beam with a single delamination subjected to axial loads and static end moments. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and the "free mode" assumption in delamination vibration are adopted. This is the first study of the influences of static end moments upon the effects of delaminations on natural frequencies, critical buckling loads and critical moments for lateral instability. The results show that the effects of delamination on reducing natural frequencies, critical buckling load and critical moment for lateral instability are aggravated by the presence of static end moment. In turn, the effects of static end moments on vibration and instability characteristics are affected by the presence of delamination. The analytical results of this study can serve as a benchmark for finite element method and other numerical solutions.     

Bending of Bars under a Follower Load

Exact solutions of the problem of nonlinear bending of a thin bar under a point follower load are given. The problem is studied for an arbitrary follower angle and the particular cases of axial and transverse follower forces are considered. The solutions are written in unified parametric form and expressed in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions.     

Stability of viscoelastic rectangular plate with a piezoelectric layer subjected to follower force

The effects of a piezoelectric layer on the stability of viscoelastic plates subjected to the follower forces are evaluated. The differential equation of motion of the viscoelastic plate with the piezoelectric layer is formulated using the two-dimensional viscoelastic differential constitutive relation and the thin plate theory. The weak integral form of the differential equations and the force boundary conditions are obtained. Using the element-free Galerkin method, the governing equation of the viscoelastic rectangular plate with elastic dilatation and Kelvin–Voigt distortion is derived, subjected to the follower forces coupled with the piezoelectric effect. A generalized complex eigenvalue problem is solved, and the force excited by the piezoelectric layer due to external voltage is modeled as the follower tensile force; this force is used to improve the stability of the non-conservative viscoelastic plate. For the viscoelastic plate with various boundary conditions, the results for the instability type and the critical loads are presented to show the variations in these factors with respect to the location of the piezoelectric layers and the applied voltages. The stability of the viscoelastic plates can be effectively improved by the determination of the optimal location for the piezoelectric layers and the most favorable voltage assignment.     

Post-buckling of cantilever columns having variable cross-section under a combined load

Post-buckling of a cantilever column is examined under a combined load consisting of a tip-concentrated load and a distributed axial load, through dynamic formulation. The formulation of the problem is based on the moment–curvature relationship. The two-point boundary value problem described by the governing equations is dependent on the frequency parameter and the two load parameters. The buckling loads are those loads at which the eigencurve, namely, the load versus frequency curve of the column meets the load axis. A simple and reliable iterative procedure to convert the two-point boundary value problem into an initial value problem is followed and solved the non-linear differential equations utilizing a fourth-order Runge–Kutta integration scheme. To demonstrate the potentiality of the adopted numerical scheme, linear vibration frequencies of truncated, tapered cantilever wedges and cones are determined and compared with the published analytical and test results. Buckling and post-buckling loads of a simply supported stepped column are obtained and compared with the published test results. The loads and deflections of non-uniform cantilever columns are obtained for various slopes at the tip. The interaction of load parameters for a free–free truncated conical column has also been examined. The numerical results indicate that the path represented by the two load parameters turns out to be nearly a straight line.

Shear deformable bars of doubly symmetrical cross section under nonlinear nonuniform torsional vibrations—application to torsional postbuckling configurations and primary resonance excitations

In this paper a boundary element method is developed for the nonuniform torsional vibration problem of bars of arbitrary doubly symmetric constant cross section, taking into account the effects of geometrical nonlinearity (finite displacement—small strain theory) and secondary twisting moment deformation. The bar is subjected to arbitrarily distributed or concentrated conservative dynamic twisting and warping moments along its length, while its edges are subjected to the most general axial and torsional (twisting and warping) boundary conditions. The resulting coupling effect between twisting and axial displacement components is also considered and a constant along the bar compressive axial load is induced so as to investigate the dynamic response at the (torsional) postbuckled state. The bar is assumed to be adequately laterally supported so that it does not exhibit any flexural or flexural–torsional behavior. A coupled nonlinear initial boundary value problem with respect to the variable along the bar angle of twist and to an independent warping parameter is formulated. The resulting equations are further combined to yield a single partial differential equation with respect to the angle of twist. The problem is numerically solved employing the Analog Equation Method (AEM), a BEM based method, leading to a system of nonlinear Differential–Algebraic Equations (DAE). The main purpose of the present contribution is twofold: (i) comparison of both the governing differential equations and the numerical results of linear or nonlinear free or forced vibrations of bars ignoring or taking into account the secondary twisting moment deformation effect (STMDE) and (ii) numerical investigation of linear or nonlinear free vibrations of bars at torsional postbuckling configurations. Numerical results are worked out to illustrate the method, demonstrate its efficiency and wherever possible its accuracy.

The unsymmetrical bending of cantilever rectangular plates

This paper discusses the problems of the unsymmetrical bending of cantilever rectangular plates under various loads by the energy method.

Non-conservative stability of multi-step non-uniform columns

The non-conservative stability of non-uniform columns under the combined action of concentrated and variably distributed forces is solved analytically. Two types of follower force system are considered: (i) concentrated follower forces and variably distributed follower forces, (ii) concentrated follower forces and variably distributed conservative forces. The exact solutions for stability of four kinds of one-step non-uniform columns subjected to the two types of follower force system are derived for the first time. Then a new exact approach, which combines the exact solutions of one-step columns and the transfer matrix method, is presented for the non-conservative stability analysis of multi-step non-uniform columns. The advantage of the proposed method is that the resulting eigenvalue equation for a multi-step non-uniform column with any kinds of two end support configurations, an arbitrary number of spring supports and concentrated masses can be conveniently determined from a second order determinant. The decrease in the determinant order, as compared with previously developed procedures, leads to significant savings in the computational effort. A numerical example shows that the results obtained from the proposed method are in good agreement with those determined from the finite element method (FEM), but the proposed method takes less computational time than FEM.
