RESUMO
In this article, the wave finite element method (WFEM) is used to calculate the band gap characteristics of two-dimensional (2D) periodic double-wall grillages (DwGs), which are verified by the grillage model vibration measurement experiment and finite element calculation. To obtain the band gap characteristics of periodic DwGs, the finite element calculation model is established according to the lattice and energy band theory and the characteristic equation of the periodic unit cell under the given wave vector condition is solved based on Bloch theorem. Then, the frequency transfer functions of finite-length manufactured and finite element models are obtained to verify the band gap characteristics of periodic DwGs. Finally, the effects of material parameters and structural forms on band gap characteristics and transfer functions are analyzed, which can provide a reference for engineering structure vibration and noise reduction design.
RESUMO
The vibration of the periodic oscillator coupled damping beam model is reduced through the band gaps designing method, which can be applied in equivalent engineering structures. In this paper, the flexural wave dispersion relations of the infinite long periodic oscillator coupled damping beam were calculated using the reverberation-ray matrix method combined with the Bloch theorem. The flexural wave vibration frequency response function of the finite long periodic oscillator coupled damping beam was carried out using the finite element method. The flexural wave vibration band gaps occur in the infinite long periodic oscillator coupled damping beam model in both the analytical and numerical results. In these band gaps, flexural waves' propagation is prohibited, and flexural vibration is significantly suppressed. Furthermore, the effects of structure and material parameters on the flexural wave vibration band gaps characteristics are studied. Thus, the structural vibration reduction design can be realized by adjusting the related parameters of the periodic coupled damping beam structures and the equivalent 2D periodic stiffened plate structures.
RESUMO
We present an exact method to model the free vibration of functionally graded carbon-nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) beams with arbitrary boundary conditions based on first-order shear deformation elasticity theory. Five types of carbon nanotube (CNT) distributions are considered. The distributions are either uniform or functionally graded and are assumed to be continuous through the thickness of the beams. The displacements and rotational components of the beams are expressed as a linear combination of the standard Fourier series and several supplementary functions. The formulation is derived using the modified Fourier series and solved using the strong-form solution and the weak-form solution (i.e., the Rayleigh-Ritz method). Both solutions are applicable to various combinations of boundary constraints, including classical boundary conditions and elastic-supported boundary conditions. The accuracy, efficiency and validity of the two solutions presented are demonstrated via comparison with published results. A parametric study is conducted on the influence of several key parameters, namely, the L/h ratio, CNT volume fraction, CNT distribution, boundary spring stiffness and shear correction factor, on the free vibration of FG-CNTRC beams.
