Abstract: Here, the large amplitude free flexural vibration behavior of symmetrically laminated composite skew plates is investigated using the finite element method. The formulation includes the effects of shear deformation, in-plane and rotary inertia. The geometric non-linearity based on von Karman's assumptions is introduced. The nonlinear matrix amplitude equation obtained by employing Galerkin's method is solved by direct iteration technique. Time history for the nonlinear free vibration of composite skew plate is also obtained using Newmark's time integration technique to examine the accuracy of matrix amplitude equation. The variation of nonlinear frequency ratios with amplitudes is brought out considering different parameters such as skew angle, fiber orientation and boundary condition.

TL;DR: Using a differential quadrature (DQ) method, large amplitude free vibration analysis of laminated composite skew thin plates is presented in this paper, where the governing equations are based on the thin plate theory (TPT) and the geometrical nonlinearity is modeled using Green's strain in conjunction with von Karman assumptions.
Abstract: Using a differential quadrature (DQ) method, large amplitude free vibration analysis of laminated composite skew thin plates is presented The governing equations are based on the thin plate theory (TPT) and the geometrical nonlinearity is modeled using Green's strain in conjunction with von Karman assumptions To cause the impact due to nonlinear terms more significant, in-plane immovable simply supported, clamped and different combinations of them are considered The effects of different parameters on the convergence and accuracy of the method are studied The resulted solutions are compared to those from other numerical methods to show the accuracy of the method Some new results for laminated composite skew plates with different mixed boundary conditions are presented and are compared with those obtained using the first order shear deformation theory based DQ (FSDT-DQ) method Excellent agreements exist between the solutions of the two approaches but with much lower computational efforts of the present DQ methodology with respect to FSDT-DQ method

Abstract: Here, the large amplitude free flexural vibration behaviors of thin laminated composite skew plates are investigated using finite element approach. The formulation includes the effects of shear deformation, in-plane and rotary inertia. The geometric non-linearity based on von Karman's assumptions is introduced. The non-linear governing equations obtained employing Lagrange's equations of motion are solved using the direct iteration technique. The variation of non-linear frequency ratios with amplitudes is brought out considering different parameters such as skew angle, number of layers, fiber orientation, boundary condition and aspect ratio. The influence of higher vibration modes on the non-linear dynamic behavior of laminated skew plates is also highlighted. The present study reveals the redistribution of vibrating mode shape at certain amplitude of vibration depending on geometric and lamination parameters of the plate. Also, the degree of hardening behavior increases with the skew angle and its rate of change depends on the level of amplitude of vibration.

TL;DR: In this article, the Von Karman field equations for flexible oblique plates with an initial curvature are extended to a dynamical case using series of initial and additional deflections and Galerkin's procedure, the governing equation for an admissible mode time function is established using this single assumed modal deflection, and assuming built-in edge fiee to move in the inplane directions.
Abstract: Von Karman field equations for flexible oblique plates with an initial curvature are extended to a dynamical case Using series iepresentation of initial and additional deflections and Galerkin's procedure, the governing equation for an admissible mode time function is established Using this single assumed modal deflection, and assuming built-in edge fiee to move in the inplane directions, the following particular cases are discussed: buckling of an oblique plate under uniaxial compressive load, free linear vibrations of a square plate, large deflections of a uniformly loaded square plate, snap-through phenomena of a curved oblique plate under uniform transverse load, and free nonlinear vibrations A numeiical example concerning a rhombic plate is discussed in more detail The well-known fact of a decrease of the period of nonlinear vibrations with an increasing amplitude is corroborated, this relation being less pronounced for larger sweep angles
