The dynamic response of repaired composite beams under a harmonic peeling load was studied theoretically and experimentally. The repair method was based on removal of the damaged region and bonding a composite patch into the gap with adhesive. In the theoretical part, the equations of motion in the axial and transverse directions were derived assuming that the viscoelastic adhesive layer resist...

In this paper, a size-dependent formulation for the Bernoulli-Euler beam is developed based on a new model of couple stress theory presented by Hadjesfandiari and Dargush. The constitutive equation obtained in this new model, consists of only one length scale parameter that is capable of capturing the micro-structural size effect in predicting the mechanical behavior of the structure. Having on...

the dynamic response of the railway under accelerated moving load using dynamic green function is presented in this paper. for this purpose, an exact and direct modeling technique is introduced for the railway modeling as the damped euler-bernoulli beam on the partial winkler foundation with arbitrary boundary conditions subjected to the moving load. the effects of the elastic coefficient of wi...

In this paper, the modified Euler-Bernoulli beam model is presented to examine the influence of surface elasticity and residual surface tension on the critical force of axial buckling of nanotubes in the presence of rotary inertia. An explicit solution is derived for the buckling loads of microscaled Euler beams considering surface effects. The size-dependent buckling behavior of the nanotube d...

Finite element formulations based generally on classical beam theories such as Euler-Bernoulli or Timoshenko. Sometimes, these two formulations could be problematic expressed in terms of restrictions of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, in case of thicker beams due to non-consideration of transverse shear; phenomenon that is known as shear locking characterized the Timoshenko beam theory, in case of...

The Rayleigh beam is a perturbation of the Bernoulli-Euler beam. We establish convergence of the solution of the Exact Controllability Problem for the Rayleigh beam to the correspondig solution of the Bernoulli-Euler beam.The problem of convergence is related to a Singular Perturbation Problem. The main tool in solving this problem is a weak version of a lower bound for hyperbolic polynomials.

The equilibrium position of an Euler-Bernoulli beam is investigated. Using the discrete Euler-Lagrange and Lagrange-d’Alembert principles, the behavior of the beam is simulated using variational integrators and, in particular, AVIs (Asynchronous Variational Integrators). Special emphasis is placed on the discrete mechanics and geometric structure underlying stress resultant beam models.

free vibration analysis of higher-order shear deformation beam resting on one- and two-parameter elasticfoundation is studied using differential transform method (dtm) as a part of a calculation procedure. first,the governing differential equations of beam are derived in a general form considering the shear-freeboundary conditions (zero shear stress conditions at the top and bottom of a beam). ...
