Vibration of bi-dimensional functionally graded Timoshenko beams excited by a moving load

TL;DR: In this article, the vibration of bi-dimensional functionally graded Timoshenko beams excited by a moving concentrated load was studied. But the authors focused on the effect of the material distribution and moving load speed on the vibration characteristics of the beams.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic response of a functionally graded Timoshenko beam on two-parameter elastic foundations due to a variable velocity moving mass

TL;DR: In this article, a modified finite element method (FEM) was used to analyze the transverse vibrations of a Timoshenko beam, made of functionally graded materials (FGMs), on a two-parameter foundation and subjected to a variable-velocity moving mass.

Large displacement response of tapered cantilever beams made of axially functionally graded material

TL;DR: In this article, a co-rotational beam element taking the effects of the material inhomogeneity, shear deformation and nonuniform cross section into account is formulated and employed in computing the response of the beams.

Multiobjective optimization of laminated composite cylindrical shells for maximum frequency and buckling load

TL;DR: In this article, a multiobjective optimization of laminated cylindrical shells to maximize a weighted sum of the frequency and buckling load under external load was studied, and a program based on FORTRAN was used for the optimization of the laminated shells.
