In this study, convolution and indirect meshless techniques were applied to solve the free vibration problem of irregular composite plates surrounded by a nonlinear elastic matrix with three parameters. The influences of variable thickness, foundation stiffness, and supporting conditions on frequency values and mode shapes were investigated. The indirect moving least squares quadrature technique was found to be efficient for vibration plates containing material discontinuity.
Convolution and indirect meshless techniques are presented to solve the free vibration problem of irregular composite plates surrounded by a nonlinear elastic matrix with three parameters. Linear and parabolic foundations are examined. The displacement field is derived based on a first order transverse shear theory. In vibration study, the governing equation is reduced for the solution of the nonlinear eigenvalue problem and is solved by a direct iterative method. The influences of variable thickness, foundation stiffness, and supporting conditions on frequency values and mode shapes are investigated. The accuracy and efficiency of the two methods are carried out in two ways, firstly by comparison with exact, classical quadrature, and Rayleigh-Ritz approaches, and secondly by calculated the CPU time. Furthermore, some detailed results are presented to explore the effects of elastic and geometric properties of the vibrated irregular plate. From the results, it is found that the indirect moving least squares quadrature technique is an efficient scheme for vibration plates containing material discontinuity.

Summary: This paper investigates the geometric nonlinear dynamic behavior of shallow sandwich panels made of nanocomposite enriched face-sheets and auxetic honeycomb core with negative Poisson's ratio.

The proposed method is verified and shown to yield results with less than 2% error compared to previously published papers. Numerical studies show that the proposed method allows for efficient nonlinear dynamic analysis of the panels.

Emad Sobhani, Amir R. Masoodi, Omer Civalek, Amir Reza Ahmadi-Pari

Summary: This article investigates the frequencies of tangential waves in Functionally Graded (FG) sandwich Merged Hemispherical-Cylindrical Shells (MHCS) with free-damped vibration characteristics. The three-layered MHCS contains Functionally Graded Material (FGM) with functional variation along the thickness. The mechanical features of the materials are determined using Equivalent Single Layer (ESL) and Rule of Mixture (RM). Eight sandwich types are examined, assuming flexible merging and support conditions. The article utilizes Donnell's hypothesis and Hamilton's scheme to acquire the kinetic differential equations and applies the Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM) to discretize the equations and determine the tangential wave frequencies.

Sayed Mohamad Mirfatah, Mohammad Amin Shahmohammadi, Hamzeh Salehipour, Omer Civalek

Summary: The aim of this paper is to study the size-dependent geometrical nonlinear static characteristics of curved panels enriched by nano-additives incorporating thermal effects. The size-dependency is considered by developing the basic equations based on the modified couple stresses theory (MCST). An analytical approach based on the Galerkin method is used to find the response of the achieved set of nonlinear differential equations and obtain a closed-form pressure-deflection relationship representing the nonlinear equilibrium path of the curved micropanels. The closed-form relationship is examined and a parametric numerical study is conducted to investigate the effects of material length-scale parameter (MLSP) and the characteristics of geometry and material on the geometrical nonlinear path of equilibrium.

On analysis of nanocomposite conical structures

Shahriar Dastjerdi, Omer Civalek, Mohammad Malikan, Bekir Akgoz

Summary: This research focuses on analyzing rotating truncated conical baskets reinforced by carbon nanotubes around two independent axes. A time-dependent analysis is used to extract the nonlinear dynamic governing equations for the structure. Carbon nanotubes are used to reinforce the conical basket, with different distributions impacting the mechanical properties. The resistance of a novel two-axis rotating conical basket as a centrifuge device is investigated at various rotational velocities. The results show that reinforcing the basket with carbon nanotubes increases its resistance against deformation caused by rotation.

A Voronoi tessellated model considering damage evolution for modeling meso-mechanical mechanism of the sandstone

Dongliang Ji, Hui Cheng, Hongbao Zhao

Summary: The influence of crystal size on the macroscopic parameters of sandstone samples is studied using a rock model based on the Voronoi tessellated model. It is found that decreasing crystal size results in increased strength and elastic modulus. Strain energy density (SED) is shown to help explain the failure mechanisms of the sandstone samples. A constitutive model that considers the heterogeneity in elastic modulus and rock strength is developed and is in good agreement with experimental results. The study also identifies the triggering of surface damage on slopes by vibration excitation in engineering applications as well as proposes a constitutive model for quantitatively evaluating damage accumulation in mining tunnels.

A multi-physical coupling isogeometric formulation for nonlinear analysis and smart control of laminated CNT-MEE plates

Duy-Khuong Ly, Ho-Nam Vu, Chanachai Thongchom, Nguyen-Thoi Trung

Summary: This paper presents a novel numerical approach for nonlinear analysis and smart damping control in laminated functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced magneto-electro-elastic (FG-CNTMEE) plate structures, taking into account multiple physical fields. The approach employs a multi-physical coupling isogeometric formulation to accurately capture the nonlinear strain-displacement relationship and the magneto-electro-elastic coupling properties. The smart constrained layer damping treatment is applied to achieve nonlinear damped responses. The formulation is transformed into the Laplace domain and converted back to the time domain through inverse techniques for smart control using viscoelastic materials.
