Longitudinal shear vibrations of composite poroelastic cylinders

Study of Torsional Vibrations of Composite Poroelastic Spherical Shell-Biot’s Extension Theory

Torsional vibrations of composite poroelastic dissipative spherical shell are investigated in the framework of Biot’s extension theory.Here composite poroelastic spherical shell consists of two spherical shells, one is placed on other, and both are made of different poroelastic materials. Consideration of the stress-free boundaries of outer surface and the perfect bonding between two shells lea...

Longitudinal-Torsional and Two Plane Transverse Vibrations of a Composite Timoshenko Rotor

In this paper, two kinds of vibrations are considered for a composite Timoshenko rotor: longitudinal-torsional vibration and two plane transverse one. The kinetic and potential energies and virtual work due to the gyroscopic effects are calculated and the set of six governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton principle. Differential quadrature method (DQM) is used as ...

Polar Shear Lag Analysis of a Composite of Concentric Cylinders with Longitudinal Cracks: Application to Internal Checking in Wood

Composites of concentric cylinders can fail by microcracks that span the thickness and length of one cylinder but arrest at the boundary to adjacent cylinders. This failure mode was analyzed by developing a new polar shear-lag analysis for stresses in a cross section of a concentric-cylinder composite. The analysis can accurately calculate stresses in each cylinder in the presence of microcrack...

Resonant vibrations of free cylinders and disks

A complete solution is obtained for nonaxisymmetric resonant vibrations of a free cylinder or disk involving infinite sums. For axisymmetric longitudinal vibrations an alternative to previous solutions is included. In principle, the solutions satisfy exactly the stress-free boundary conditions, in contrast to the approximate bending-mode solutions due to Pickett or approximate solutions based o...
