A note on transverse vibrations of a Timoshenko beam of non-uniform thickness clamped at one end and carrying a concentrated mass at the other

TLDR
In this paper, the lower natural frequencies of vibration of the structural system described the title have been determined and are presented for a significant range of values of the governing mechanical and geometric parameters for two types of configurations of structural interest: discontinuous variation of the thickness and continuous, linear variation.

Free and forced vibration of a laminated FGM Timoshenko beam of variable thickness under heat conduction

TL;DR: In this article, the free and forced vibration of a laminated functionally graded beam of variable thickness under thermally induced initial stresses is studied within the framework of Timoshenko beam theory, where the beam consists of a homogeneous substrate and two inhomogeneous functionally graded layers whose material composition follows a power law distribution in the thickness direction.

A general solution for dynamic response of axially loaded non-uniform Timoshenko beams

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic investigation method for the analysis of Timoshenko beams is proposed, which takes into account the shearing deformation and the rotating inertia, and the solution of the problem is obtained through the iterative variational Rayleigh-Ritz method and assuming as test functions an appropriate class of orthogonal polynomials which respect the essential conditions only.

Vibration and Stability Analysis of Non-Uniform Timoshenko Beams Under Axial and Distributed Tangential Loads

TL;DR: In this article, two sets of governing equations for transverse vibration of non-uniform Timoshenko beam subjected to both axial and tangential loads have been presented in the first set, where the axial forces were taken perpendicular to the shearing force, and the tangential forces were assumed to be tangential to the axis of the beam-column.

Nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory for vibration of carbon nanotube-based biosensor

TL;DR: In this paper, a CNT-based biosensor is modeled as a nonlocal Timoshenko beam made of multi-wall CNT carrying a spherical nanoscale bio-object at the free end, and the influence of the rotary inertia of the bioobject itself is considered.

Basic displacement functions for free vibration analysis of non-prismatic Timoshenko beams

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel method based on mechanical/structural principles is introduced for free vibration analysis of arbitrarily tapered Timoshenko beams in preference to primarily mathematically based methodologies.

Vibrations of a mass-loaded clamped-free Timoshenko beam

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of rotary inertia and shear deformation on the motion of a flexible robot arm modelled as a cantilevered Timoshenko beam with a lumped moment of inertia at the free end was determined.
