This study presents the effect of edge ratio and fiber orientation on free vibration analysis of simply supported antisymmetric thin and thick laminated composite plates (LCP) on elastic foundation. In the analysis, the foundation is modeled as two parameters Pasternak and Winkler type foundation. The equation of motion for laminated rectangular plates resting on elastic foundation is obtained ...

Surface and small scale effects on free transverse vibration of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) fitted with Y-junction at downstream end conveying viscose fluid is investigated in this article based on Euler-Bernoulli beam (EBB) model. Nonlocal elasticity theory is employed to consider small scale effects due to its simplicity and efficiency. The energy method and Hamilton’s principle a...

In this article, electro-thermo nonlocal nonlinear vibration and instability of viscous-fluid-conveying double–walled boron nitride nanotubes (DWBNNTs) embedded on Pasternak foundation are investigated. The DWBNNT is simulated as a Timoshenko beam (TB) which includes rotary inertia and transverse shear deformation in the formulation. Considering electro-mechanical coupling, the nonlinear govern...

In this paper, the influence of the elastic foundation on the free vibration and buckling of thin-walled piezoelectric-based functionally graded materials (FGM) cylindrical shells under combined loadings is investigated. The equations of motion are obtained by using the principle of Hamilton and Maxwell's equations and the Navier's type solution used to solve these equations. Material propertie...

in this research, static stresses analysis of boron nitride nano - tube reinforced composite (bnntrc) cylinder made of poly - vinylidene fluoride (pvdf) subjected to non - axisymmetric thermo - mechanical loads and applied voltage is developed. the surrounded elastic medium is modelled by pasternak foundation. composite structure is modeled based on piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (pfr...

This paper presents a modified variational principle for the treatment of thin plate bending on an elastic foundation. The foundation may be of the Winkler or Pasternak type. A hybrid Trefftz (HT) finite-element (FE) model has been developed based on the principle and a new set of T-complete functions. The derivation of the new set of trial functions is based mainly on the resolution approach o...

in the present research, nonlinear vibration in a coupled system of boron-nitride nano-tube reinforced composite (bnntrc) oil pipes is studied. single-walled boron-nitride nano-tubes (swbnnts) are arranged in a longitudinal direction inside poly-vinylidene fluoride (pvdf) matrix. damping and shearing effects of surrounded medium are taken into account by visco-pasternak model. based on piezoele...
