Description
Summary:The vibration analysis of an axially functionally graded material non-prismatic Timoshenko beam under axial thermal variation in humid environment is carried out using the harmonic differential quadrature method. In this modeling, the length and width of the beam remains constant whereas thickness of the beam is linearly varied along the axis of the beam. The material properties are temperature dependent and are assumed to be varied continuously along the axial direction according to power law distribution. Three types of temperature variations are considered in this study, that is, uniform temperature rise, linear temperature rise, and non-linear temperature rise. The temperature of the beam remains constant under uniform temperature rise condition and it is varied linearly and nonlinearly along the length of beam for rest of the conditions. The beam is subjected to uniform moisture concentration to impose humidity. Hamiltonian’s approach is used to derive the governing equations of motion. The resultant governing equations are then solved using the harmonic differential quadrature method to obtain the natural frequencies of the axially functionally graded material non-prismatic beam. The results obtained using the harmonic differential quadrature method are compared with results obtained for special cases. The effects of thermal variation, humidity, non-homogeneity parameter, and end conditions on natural frequencies of the non-prismatic beam are reported.
