Abstract The effect of the foundation heterogeneity on mechanical behaviour a beam Vlasov soils is discussed. According to refined soil model, static problem beams lying transversely isotropic can be solved by an iterative method. In this paper, based energy variational principle, differential equations for under axial force foundations are derived. methods solving internal forces and deformati...

Abstract: In the present article, a semi-analytical technique to investigate free bending vibration behavior of axially functionally graded non-prismatic Timoshenko beam subjected to a point force at both ends is developed based on the power series expansions. The beam is assumed to be made of linear elastic and isotropic material with constant Poisson ratio. Material properties including the ...

Buckling analysis of thin cylindrical shells is very important due to their production process.  Usually longitudinal and transversal stiffeners are used to increase the buckling stiffness. In this paper, considering a thin cylindrical shell with longitudinal and transversal ribs subjected to axial force and lateral pressure, the influence of different aspect of axial force to lateral pressure ...

This paper studies free vibration of simply supported functionally graded beams with piezoelectric layers subjected to axial compressive loads. The Young's modulus of beam is assumed to be graded continuously across the beam thickness. Applying the Hamilton’s principle, the governing equation is established. Resulting equation is solved using the Euler’s Equation. The effects of the constituent...

a nonlocal beam model based on the bernoulli–euler beam theory is presented to investigate the dynamic stability of embedded single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) in thermal environment under combined static and periodic axial loads. the dynamic stability analysis is carried out by including the effects of small-scale parameter, temperature change and elastic medium. the equation of motion is...

recently, a large amount of studies have been related to nonlinear systems with multi-degrees of freedom as well as continuous systems. the purpose of this paper is to optimize passive vibration absorbers in linear and nonlinear states for an euler-bernoulli beam with a nonlinear vibratory behavior under concentrated moving load. the goal parameter in the optimization is maximum deflection of t...

Straight elastically supported beams of variable width under the action of a periodic axial force are considered. Two shape optimization problems for reducing parametric resonance zones are studied. In the first problem, the range of resonant frequencies is minimized for a given parametric resonance zone and a fixed amplitude of excitation. In the second problem, the minimal (critical) amplitud...

in this paper, chaotic motion analysis and its control for a non-planar non-linear cantilever beam with axial and lateral parametric excitation in the free end is accomplished. this is a new method for control of chaotic motion of a non-linear planar beam. in this survey, internal resonance of the beam is 2:1 and the initial resonance is in the outside of plane and it is assumed a sub-resonance...

Electrostatic plasma accelerators which avoid the space charge limitations of conventional ion rockets are described. Additional advantages for these devices include moderate requirements on magnetic field strength, and on power level. In cylindrical and annular geometries, neutral plasmas can exhibit axial acceleration under the influence of externally applied axial electrostatic fields in the...
