In this study, based on nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen, the first order shear deformation theory of plates (FSDT) is reformulated for vibration of nano-plates considering the initial geometric imperfection. The dynamic analog of the von Kármán nonlinear strain-displacement relations is used to derive equations of motion for the nano-plate. When dealing with nonlineariti...

This paper presents a new numerical tool for evaluating the vibration frequencies and mode shapes of masonry buildings in the presence of cracks. The algorithm has been implemented within the NOSA-ITACA code, which models masonry as a nonlinear elastic material with zero tensile strength. Some case studies are reported, and the differences between linear and nonlinear behaviour highlighted.

multi frequency vibrations of a system of two isotropic circular plates interconnected by a rolling visco-elastic layer that has nonlinear characteristics are considered. the system with two circular plates and interconnecting discrete continually distributed rolling visco nonlinear elastic rheological elements presents the model of hybrid nonlinear system. the analytical solutions of first asy...

In this article, the multi-step differential transform method (MsDTM) is applied to give approximate solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equation such as fractional-non-linear oscillatory and vibration equations. The results indicate that the method is very effective and sufficient for solving nonlinear differential equations of fractional order.

In this paper, vibration control is performed by using piezoelectric elements which are one of the smart actuator. An operator-based robust nonlinear control system by using robust right coprime factorization approach and a nonliliner property of hysteresis model is proposed. Considering the hysteresis in the piezoelectric actuator, assuming that an aircraft vertical tail is forced vibration mo...

In this paper, the nonlinear free vibrations of thin symmetric and non-symmetric cross-ply composite plates subjected to biaxial initial stresses are investigated. Because of their excellent properties such as specific strength and specific stiffness, composite plates have wide applications in aerospace and mechanical structures. Based on Von-Karman's strain-displacement relations and using Gal...
