Vibration is omnipotent, universal and multifaceted phenomena. It is an interdisciplinary field where physicist, mathematician and engineer interact in a closed loop. Vibration absorption is a method of adding a tuned springmass absorber to a system to create anti-resonance at a resonance of the original system. Most real-world phenomena exhibit nonlinear behavior. In these paper overviews of v...

in this study, thermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration of a polyethylene (pe) cylindrical shell embedded in an elastic foundation was investigated. the shell is reinforced by armchair carbon nanotubes (cnts) where characteristics of the equivalent composite being determined using mori-tanaka model. the elastic medium is simulated using the spring constant of the winkler-type,  . employing nonline...

the aim of the paper is to analyze electro-thermo nonlinear vibration of a double-piezoelectric composite microplate-system (dpcmps) based on nonlocal piezoelasticity theory. the two microplates are assumed to be connected by an enclosing elastic medium which is simulated by pasternak foundation. both of smart composite microplates are made of poly-vinylidene fluoride (pvdf) reinforced by zigza...

Nowadays, atomic force microscope is considered as a useful tool in the determination of intermolecular forces and surface topography with the resolution of nanometers. In this kind of microscope, micro cantilever is considered as the heart of the microscope and is used as a measuring tool.  This paper is aimed towards investigating the behavior of a piezoelectric micro cantilever with a triang...

this study presents a new approach to control the nonlinear dynamics of an adaptive absorber using shape memory alloy (sma) element. shape memory alloys are classified as smart materials that can remember their original shape after deformation. stress and temperature-induced phase transformations are two typical behaviors of shape memory alloys. changing the stiffness associated with phase tran...

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 the present study, the analysis of nonlinear vibration for a simply-supported flexible beam with a constant velocity carrying a moving mass is studied. The amplitude of vibration assumed high and its deformation rate is assumed slow. Due to the high amplitude of vibrations, stretching is created in mid-plane, resulting in, the nonlinear strain-displacement relations is obtained, Thus, Nonlin...

In this paper, homotopy perturbation and modified Lindstedt-Poincare methods are employed for nonlinear free vibrational analysis of simply supported and double-clamped beams subjected to axial loads. Mid-plane stretching effect has also been accounted in the model. Galerkin's decomposition technique is implemented to convert the dimensionless equation of the motion to nonlinear ordinary differ...

carbon nanotube is investigated based on an elastic multi-layer shell model with van der Waals interaction taken into consideration. The multi-walled carbon nanotube is described as an individual elastic shell and the interlayer friction is negligible between the inner and outer tubes in the proposed model. And the Donnell equations of cylindrical shells are employed to describe the nonlinear b...
