Rotating sandwich cylindrical shells with an FGM core and two FGPM layers: free vibration analysis

The free vibration analysis of a rotating cylindrical shell with an analytical method is investigated. The shell is considered as a sandwich structure, where the middle layer is a functionally graded material(FGM) shell, and it is surrounded by two piezoelectric layers. Considering piezoelectric materials to be functionally graded(FG),the material properties vary along the thickness direction as one innovation of this study.Applying the first-order shear deformation theory(FSDT), the equations of motion of this electromechanical system are derived as the partial differential equations(PDEs) using Hamilton's principle. Then, the Galerkin procedure is used to discretize the governing equations, and the present results are compared with the previously published results for both isotropic and FGM shells to verify the analytical method. Finally, the effects of FGM and functionally graded piezoelectric material(FGPM) properties as well as the thickness ratio and the axial and circumferential wave numbers on the natural frequencies are studied. Moreover, the Campbell diagram is plotted and discussed through the governing equations. The present results show that increasing the non-homogeneous index of the FGM decreases the natural frequencies on the contrary of the effect of non-homogeneous index of the FGPM.     

3D free vibration analysis of a functionally graded piezoelectric hollow cylinder filled with compressible fluid

The free vibration of an arbitrarily thick orthotropic piezoelectric hollow cylinder with a functionally graded property along the thickness direction and filled with a non-viscous compressible fluid medium is investigated. The analysis is directly based on the three-dimensional exact equations of piezoelasticity using the so-called state space formulations. The original functionally graded shell is approximated by a laminate model, of which the solution will gradually approach the exact one when the number of layers increases. The effect of internal fluid can be taken into consideration by imposing a relation between the fluid pressure and the radial displacement at the interface. Analytical frequency equations are derived for different electrical boundary conditions at two cylindrical surfaces. As particular cases, free vibration of multi-layered piezoelectric hollow cylinder and wave propagation in infinite homogeneous cylinder are studied. Numerical comparison with available results is made and dispersion curves predicted from the present three-dimensional analysis are given. Numerical examples are further performed to investigate the effects of various parameters on the natural frequencies.     

An analytical study of vibration in functionally graded piezoelectric nanoplates: nonlocal strain gradient theory

In this paper, we analytically study vibration of functionally graded piezoelectric(FGP) nanoplates based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory. The top and bottom surfaces of the nanoplate are made of PZT-5 H and PZT-4, respectively. We employ Hamilton's principle and derive the governing differential equations. Then, we use Navier's solution to obtain the natural frequencies of the FGP nanoplate. In the first step, we compare our results with the obtained results for the piezoelectric nanoplates in the previous studies. In the second step, we neglect the piezoelectric effect and compare our results with those obtained for the functionally graded(FG) nanoplates. Finally, the effects of the FG power index, the nonlocal parameter, the aspect ratio, and the lengthto-thickness ratio, and the nanoplate shape on natural frequencies are investigated.     

Imperfection sensitivity in the nonlinear vibration of functionally graded plates

In this paper, the nonlinear partial differential equations of nonlinear vibration for an imperfect functionally graded plate (FGP) in a general state of arbitrary initial stresses are presented. The derived equations include the effects of initial stresses and initial imperfections size. The material properties of a functionally graded plate are graded continuously in the direction of thickness. The variation of the properties follows a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. Using these derived governing equations, the nonlinear vibration of initially stressed FGPs with geometric imperfection was studied. Present approach employed perturbation technique, Galerkin method and Runge–Kutta method. The perturbation technique was used to derive the nonlinear governing equations. The equations of motion of the imperfect FGPs was obtained using Galerkin method and then solved by Runge–Kutta method. Numerical solutions are presented for the performances of perfect and imperfect FGPs. The nonlinear vibration of a simply supported ceramic/metal FGP was solved. It is found that the initial stress, geometric imperfection and volume fraction index greatly affect the behaviors of nonlinear vibration.     

Wave propagation analysis of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic nanobeam rest on Visco-Pasternak foundation

Wave propagation analysis of a nanobeam made of functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic materials with rectangular cross section rest on Visco-Pasternak foundation is studied in this paper. For modeling the axial, rotation and transverse deformations, Timoshenko beam model is used. Fundamental magneto-electro-elastic equations of the model are derived for a general functionally graded beam excited to electric and magnetic potentials. Surface elasticity is employed for more confident modeling the behavior of nanobeam. Using Hamilton principle and calculation of kinetic and strain energies, the equations of motion are derived. Considering the harmonic wave propagation of infinite domain yields characteristic equation of the system in terms of different parameters of model. The effects of different parameters such as non-homogeneous index, wave number and residual surface stress are investigated on the different phase velocities corresponding to modes of deformation. One can find that increasing the non-homogeneous index and wave number leads to decrease in wave propagation phase velocities.

Bending analysis of five-layer curved functionally graded sandwich panel in magnetic field: closed-form solution

In this paper,an exact closed-form solution for a curved sandwich panel with two piezoelectric layers as actuator and sensor that are inserted in the top and bottom facings is presented.The core is made from functionally graded(FG)material that has heterogeneous power-law distribution through the radial coordinate.It is assumed that the core is subjected to a magnetic field whereas the core is covered by two insulated composite layers.To determine the exact solution,first characteristic equations are derived for different material types in a polar coordinate system,namely,magneto-elastic,elastic,and electro-elastic for the FG,orthotropic,and piezoelectric materials,respectively.The displacement-based method is used instead of the stress-based method to derive a set of closed-form real-valued solutions for both real and complex roots.Based on the elasticity theory,exact solutions for the governing equations are determined layer-by-layer that are considerably more accurate than typical simplified theories.The accuracy of the presented method is compared and validated with the available literature and the finite element simulation.The effects of geometrical and material parameters such as FG index,angular span along with external conditions such as magnetic field,mechanical pressure,and electrical difference are investigated in detail through numerical examples.     

A theoretical analysis of smart moderately thick shear deformable annular functionally graded plate

Based on Mindlin's plate theory, free vibration analysis of moderately thick shear deformable annular functionally graded plate coupled with piezoelectric layers is presented in this paper. A consistent formulation that satisfies the Maxwell static electricity equation is presented so that the full coupling effect of the piezoelectric layer on the dynamic characteristics of the annular FGM plate can be estimated based on the free vibration results. The differential equations of motion are solved analytically for various boundary conditions of the plate through the transformation of variable method. The applicability of the proposed model is analyzed by studying the effect of varying the gradient index of FGM plate on the free vibration characteristics of the structure. For some specific cases, obtained results were cross checked with those existing literatures and furthermore, verified by those obtained from three-dimensional finite element (3D FE) analyses.     

Analysis of wave propagation in a functionally graded nanobeam resting on visco-Pasternak's foundation

Wave propagation analysis for a functionally graded nanobeam with rectangular cross-section resting on visco-Pasternak's foundation is studied in this paper. Timoshenko's beam model and nonlocal elasticity theory are employed for formulation of the problem. The equations of motion are derived using Hamilton's principals by calculating kinetic energy, strain energy and work due to viscoelastic foundation. The effects of various parameters such as wavenumber, non-homogeneous index, nonlocal parameter and three parameters of foundation are performed on the phase velocity of the nanobeam. The obtained results indicate that some parameters such as non-homogeneous index, nonlocal parameter and wavenumber have significant effect on the response of the system.     

Free vibration of functionally graded material beams with surface-bonded piezoelectric layers in thermal environment

Free vibration of statically thermal postbuckled functionally graded material （FGM） beams with surface-bonded piezoelectric layers subject to both temperature rise and voltage is studied. By accurately considering the axial extension and based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, geometrically nonlinear dynamic governing equations for FGM beams with surface-bonded piezoelectric layers subject to thermo-electro- mechanical loadings are formulated. It is assumed that the material properties of the middle FGM layer vary continuously as a power law function of the thickness coordinate, and the piezoelectric layers are isotropic and homogenous. By assuming that the amplitude of the beam vibration is small and its response is harmonic, the above mentioned non-linear partial differential equations are reduced to two sets of coupled ordinary differential equations. One is for the postbuckling, and the other is for the linear vibration of the beam superimposed upon the postbuckled configuration. Using a shooting method to solve the two sets of ordinary differential equations with fixed-fixed boundary conditions numerically, the response of postbuckling and free vibration in the vicinity of the postbuckled configuration of the beam with fixed-fixed ends and subject to transversely nonuniform heating and uniform electric field is obtained. Thermo-electric postbuckling equilibrium paths and characteristic curves of the first three natural frequencies versus the temperature, the electricity, and the material gradient parameters are plotted. It is found that the three lowest frequencies of the prebuckled beam decrease with the increase of the temperature, but those of a buckled beam increase monotonically with the temperature rise. The results also show that the tensional force produced in the piezoelectric layers by the voltage can efficiently increase the critical buckling temperature and the natural frequency.     

Vibration analysis of FG annular sector in moderately thick plates with two piezoelectric layers

Free vibration of functionally graded(FG) annular sector plates embedded with two piezoelectric layers is studied with a generalized differential quadrature(GDQ)method. Based on the first-order shear deformation(FSD) plate theory and Hamilton's principle with parameters satisfying Maxwell's electrostatics equation in the piezoelectric layers, governing equations of motion are developed. Both open and closed circuit(shortly connected) boundary conditions on the piezoelectric surfaces, which are respective conditions for sensors and actuators, are accounted for. It is observed that the open circuit condition gives higher natural frequencies than a shortly connected condition. For the simulation of the potential electric function in piezoelectric layers, a sinusoidal function in the transverse direction is considered. It is assumed that properties of the FG material(FGM) change continuously through the thickness according to a power distribution law.The fast rate convergence and accuracy of the GDQ method with a small number of grid points are demonstrated through some numerical examples. With various combinations of free, clamped, and simply supported boundary conditions, the effects of the thicknesses of piezoelectric layers and host plate, power law index of FGMs, and plate geometrical parameters(e.g., angle and radii of annular sector) on the in-plane and out-of-plane natural frequencies for different FG and piezoelectric materials are also studied. Results can be used to predict the behaviors of FG and piezoelectric materials in mechanical systems.     

Three-dimensional free vibration analysis of multi-directional functionally graded piezoelectric annular plates on elastic foundations via state space based differential quadrature method

The three-dimensional free vibration analysis of a multi-directional functionally graded piezoelectric(FGP) annular plate resting on two parameter(Pasternak)elastic foundations is investigated under different boundary conditions. The material properties are assumed to vary continuously along the radial and thickness directions and have exponent-law distribution. A semi-analytical approach named the state space based differential quadrature method(SSDQM) is used to provide an analytical solution along the thickness using the state space method(SSM) and an approximate solution along the radial direction using the one-dimensional differential quadrature method(DQM).The influence of the Winkler and shear stiffness of the foundation, the material property graded variations, and the circumferential wave number on the non-dimensional natural frequency of multi-directional FGP annular plates is studied.
