In the paper, a novel model of fluid-conveying nanotubes made of bi-directional functionally graded materials is presented for investigating the dynamic behaviors and stability. For the first time, the material properties of the nanotubes along both radical and axial directions are under consideration. Based on Euler-Bernoulli beam and Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theories, the governing equation of the nanotubes and associated boundary conditions are developed using Hamilton's principle. Differential quadrature method (DQM) is applied for discretizing the equation to determine the numerical solutions of the nanotubes with different boundary conditions. Numerical examples are presented to examine the effects of the material gradation, nonlocal parameter, and mode order on the dynamics and stability. It is shown that the two-directional materials distribution can significantly change the critical flow velocity, fundamental frequencies and stability. Comparing with traditional one-directional distribution, such 2D is more flexible to tune overall dynamic behaviors, this may provide new avenues for smart pipes.

Application of Interpolating Matrix Method to Study Dynamics of Axially Moving Beams Made of Functionally Graded Materials

Jing-Ping Wang, Ren-Yu Ge, Ye Tang

Summary: The divergent instability and coupled flutter characteristics of axially moving beams made of functionally graded materials are studied in this paper using the interpolation matrix method. The material property of the beam changes smoothly and continuously along the thickness direction. The differential equation for the transverse vibration kinematics of axially moving FGM beams is derived using Hamilton's principle based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The effectiveness of the interpolation matrix method is illustrated by comparing the presented solutions with those in the literature. The results show that the divergence and flutter velocities of axially moving FGM beams decrease with increasing material gradient index, and there is a narrow stability region between the first static instability region (divergence) and the first dynamic instability region (first- and second-order coupled flutter).

Research on Vibration Energy Harvester Based on Two-Dimensional Acoustic Black Hole

Chunlai Yang, Yikai Yuan, Hai Wang, Ye Tang, Jingsong Gui

Summary: In this study, a vibration energy harvester based on a two-dimensional acoustic black hole (ABH) was proposed, which utilizes the wave energy focus effect of ABH to increase harvested power. The structure of ABH was designed and analyzed using numerical simulation, and optimal parameters such as power index, truncation thickness, cross-sectional length, and round table diameter were obtained. The quadratic velocity of the plate surface with ABH was determined to be 22.33 times higher than that of a flat plate, and PZT film was attached to the corresponding positions of the ABH structure and plate structure. Under the same excitation-vibration condition, the average output power of a PZT with an ABH structure was found to be higher than that of a flat plate.
