Non-Linear Vibrations of Tow Placed Variable Stiffness Composite Laminates PROGRAMA DE DOUTORAMENTO EM ENGENHARIA MECÂNICA Non-linear Vibrations of Tow Placed Variable Stiffness Composite Laminates Hamed Akhavan Doctoral Program in Mechanical Engineering Supervisor: Pedro Manuel Leal Ribeiro October 2015 c Hamed Akhavan, 2015 Abstract Vibrations of structures and mechanical systems have plenty of advantages, but also disadvantages. Notably, vibrations can lead to failures or damage of equipment. Therefore, knowing more about the vibratory behaviour helps engineers to control damage and to take preventive measures in order to avoid damages or malfunctions. For a long time, optimising material properties was a goal in material design. An important aspect in the optimisation of fibrous composite materials is the fibre angles in different layers of the laminate. In traditional composite laminates, the fibre orientation is constant in a ply, but some researchers paid attention to the possibility of changing the fibre orientation angle inside a ply. A laminate with plies which have curvilinear fibre paths is considered as a variable stiffness composite laminate (VSCL). Due to the variation of in-plane stiffness in a VSCL, these laminates find special applications in naval, aerospace, or other structures (e.g. in solar array wings, aircraft wings, fuselages and tail sections). Vibrations of VSCL plates are analysed in this thesis. To define a curvilinear fibre path, it is assumed that the fibre angle varies linearly along one of the Cartesian axes, say x, from a value T0 at the centre of the panel to the value T1 at the panel edges, x = ±a=2, where the panel has length a. The fibre path defined in this fashion is called the reference fibre path; other fibre paths in the ply can be produced by shifting - or copying - this path with a constant distance through direction y. During the manufacture process, there is a limitation on the fibre curvature radius; if the fibre path curvature is less than a determined amount, there will be kinking or buckling of the tows in the ply. In this thesis, a p-version finite element based on a third-order shear deformation theory is used to model the displacements. Non-linear terms based on von Kármán strain–displacement relations are included. Using the principle of virtual work, the equations of motion are obtained in matrix form. The order of the equations of motion (regarded as the order of the full model) can be reduced using static condensation and modal coordinates (reduced-order models). The transient responses of the equations of motion of VSCL models are obtained using Newmark method; the same method is employed to obtain solutions in static problems, using time as an auxiliary parameter. The program is implemented in an in-house Visual Fortran code. To find the periodic oscillations of VSCL plates in free and forced vibrations, the shooting method is used, together with a Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method for integration, again in an in-house Visual Fortran computational code. In a traditional composite laminate the stiffness does not change - at the macro scale - in the laminate, while, in a VSCL laminate stiffnesses change spatially with respect to at least one coordinate. It is found that this change in local stiffness changes the natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibration of the laminate, both in the linear and the non-linear regimes. Using VSCL, the stress field and the strengths in the laminate may change in a different way from what would occur in a laminate with rectilinear fibres. Consequently, the load magnitudes at which damage onset appears, as well as the position of damage onset, can be changed. i ii The effect of geometrical imperfections (out-of-planarity) is included in the p-version finite element too. The free and forced, non-linear, periodic vibrations of VSCL plates are analysed using displacement time-histories, phase plane plots, frequency spectra and shapes assumed by the plates. Bifurcations from main branches of the backbone of frequency response curves are detected and analysed. The effect of imperfection of the plate on the hardening and softening of the free vibration backbone curves are detailed. Resumo Materiais compósitos laminados são frequentemente utilizados em elementos estruturais sujeitos a vibrações. Um aspeto importante na otimização de materiais compósitos reforçados com fibras é a orientação destas últimas. Em laminados compósitos tradicionais, a orientação das fibras dis- postas na mesma lâmina é constante, mas alguns investigadores têm explorado a possibilidade de alterar a orientação das fibras numa lâmina, utilizando fibras curvilíneas. Um laminado com fibras curvilíneas é um laminado compósito com rigidez variável (VSCL do inglês Variable Stiffness Composite Laminates). Vibrações e a deformação em regime estático de placas VSCL são analisadas nesta tese. Considera-se, em particular, o caso de fibras cujo ângulo é uma função bilinear de um dos eixos cartesianos. Limitações impostas à curvatura das fibras pelo processo de fabrico e pela ocorrência de encurvadura são tomadas em consideração. Um aspeto fundamental desta tese, é o desenvolvimento de um elemento finito da versão p para placas VSCL, baseado numa teoria de deformação de corte de terceira ordem. Os termos não-lineares das relações entre deformações e deslocamentos de von Kármán são considerados, para se conseguir estudar grandes deslocamentos (regime geometricamente não-linear). Usando o princípio dos trabalhos virtuais, as equações de movimento são obtidas na forma matricial. O número de equações de movimento do modelo completo foi reduzido utilizando condensação estática e coordenadas modais (modelos de ordem reduzida). No que concerne à resolução das equações do movimento, foram essencialmente utilizados dois métodos. Para obter soluções em regime estático e respostas dinâmicas em regime transiente, as equações do movimento foram resolvidas pelo método de Newmark, no primeiro caso utilizando o tempo como um parâmetro artificial auxiliar. Para encontrar as oscilações periódicas de placas, tanto em vibrações livres como forçadas, foi utilizado o método do disparo (método shooting), em conjunto com um método Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg para a integração no tempo das equações do movimento. Em todos os casos, recorreu-se a códigos computacionais escritos em Fortran 90. Enquanto numa placa laminada compósita com fibras retilíneas a rigidez não muda - à escala macro - de um ponto para o outro do plano médio, numa placa VSCL a rigidez muda espacial- mente. Verificou-se que esta alteração na rigidez local provoca alterações nas frequências naturais e nos modos de vibração do laminado, tanto em regime linear como no regime geometricamente não linear. Usando VSCL, o campo de tensões e a resistência do laminado muda de uma forma diferente do que ocorreria num laminado com fibras retilíneas. Por conseguinte, as magnitudes de carga para a qual dano se inicia, bem como o local em que se dá esse início, são alterados. O efeito de imperfeições geométricas (alteração da planaridade) foi incluído no elemento finito da versão p desenvolvido. Vibrações periódicas nos regimes livre e forçado, não lineares, de pla- cas VSCL foram analisadas utilizando gráficos dos deslocamentos em função do tempo, planos de fase, espectros de frequência e as formas assumidas pelas placas. Bifurcações de ramos prin- cipais da curvas dorsais (backbone curves) e de curvas de resposta de frequência foram detetadas e analisadas. O efeito de imperfeições geométricas da placa sobre a inclinação das curvas dorsais iii iv foi descrito.

These flexible structures are generally modeled as strings, bars, shafts and beams (one dimensional), membranes and plate (two dimensional) or shell (three dimensional). Structures in many engineering applications, such as building floors, aircraft wings, automobile hoods or pressure vessel end-caps, can be modeled as plates. Undesirable vibrations of any of these engineering structures can lead to catastrophic results. It is important to know the fundamental frequencies of these structures in response to simple or complex excitations or boundary conditions. After their discovery in 1880, piezoelectric materials have made their mark in various engineering applications.

  • Buckling and Free Vibrations of Nanoplates – Comparison of Nonlocal Strain and Stress Approaches
    Article Buckling and Free Vibrations of Nanoplates – Comparison of Nonlocal Strain and Stress Approaches Małgorzata Chwał and Aleksander Muc * Institute of Machine Design, Cracow University of Technology, ul. Warszawska 24, 31-155 Kraków, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 February 2019; Accepted: 1 April 2019; Published: 3 April 2019 Abstract: The buckling and free vibrations of rectangular nanoplates are considered in this paper. The refined continuum transverse shear deformation theory (third and first order) is introduced to formulate the fundamental equations of the nanoplate. In addition, the analysis involves the nonlocal strain and stress theories of elasticity to take into account the small-scale effects encountered in nanostructures/nanocomposites. Hamilton’s principle is used to establish the governing equations of the nanoplate. The Rayleigh-Ritz method is proposed to solve eigenvalue problems dealing with the buckling and free vibration analysis of the nanoplates considered. Some examples are presented to investigate and illustrate the effects of various formulations. Keywords: nonlocal stress theory; nonlocal strain theory; buckling; free vibrations; nanoplates; higher order shear deformation theories 1. Introduction Concerning nano-objects, it is observed that classical (local) continuum theories presenting scale-free relations are inadequate for the mechanical analysis because of the absence of any material length scale parameters, see e.g. works by Peddieson et al. [1], Lu et al. [2], and Barretta et al. [3]. At the nanometer scale, the size effects often become prominent. Some non-classical continuum approaches have been applied to describe the mechanical behavior of small-sized structures, such as couple-stress theory, e.g.

  • 6.1 Plate Theory
    Section 6.1 6.1 Plate Theory 6.1.1 Plates A plate is a flat structural element for which the thickness is small compared with the surface dimensions. The thickness is usually constant but may be variable and is measured normal to the middle surface of the plate, Fig. 6.1.1 lateral load middle surface of plate Fig. 6.1.1: A plate 6.1.2 Plate Theory Plates subjected only to in-plane loading can be solved using two-dimensional plane stress theory1 (see Book I, §3.5). On the other hand, plate theory is concerned mainly with lateral loading. One of the differences between plane stress and plate theory is that in the plate theory the stress components are allowed to vary through the thickness of the plate, so that there can be bending moments, Fig. 6.1.2. M Fig. 6.1.2: Stress distribution through the thickness of a plate and resultant bending moment Plate Theory and Beam Theory Plate theory is an approximate theory; assumptions are made and the general three dimensional equations of elasticity are reduced. It is very like the beam theory (see Book 1 although if the in-plane loads are compressive and sufficiently large, they can buckle (see §6.7) Solid Mechanics Part II 120 Kelly Section 6.1 I, §7.4) – only with an extra dimension. It turns out to be an accurate theory provided the plate is relatively thin (as in the beam theory) but also that the deflections are small relative to the thickness. This last point will be discussed further in §6.10.
