Item Free vibration and inherent material damping characteristics of boron-FRP plate: Influence of non-uniform uniaxial edge loads(EDP Sciences, 2021) Gunasekaran, V.; Jeyaraj, J.; Mailan Chinnapandi, L.B.The current investigation presents the analytical investigation on free vibration and inherent material damping of boron-FRP plate, subjected to non-uniform uniaxial edge loads. Initially critical buckling load (Pcr) is obtained, then followed by free vibration response and inherent material damping values for corresponding modal indices of the FRP plate is calculated for different load fraction of non-uniform uniaxial edge loads. The buckling load and free vibration response are obtained by using strain energy method and Reddy's TSDT respectively. It is observed that the nature of load and aspect ratio influence the bucking, free vibration and inherent material damping behaviour of the fibre reinforced polymer plate significantly. © V.

Voigt and Halpin-Tsai micromechanics model is used to obtain effective properties of the porous graphene nanocomposites. The strain energy technique is implemented to estimate the buckling load (Pcr). By means of Reddy's third-order shear deformation theorem and Rayleigh Integral, vibration and acoustic responses are obtained. After validating the present analysis with the published results, the nature of edge loads on buckling and vibro-acoustic response is significant. It is noted that an increase in the intensity of non-uniform in-plane loads leads to changes in free vibration modes and resonant amplitude of response. The weight percentage and grading pattern of graphene reinforcement cause the stiffness hardening effect, whereas porosity distribution and coefficients cause the stiffness softening effect on the nanocomposite plate. It is found that the plate with symmetric distribution of graphene platelets with more concentration at the surface and symmetric porosity variation with more porosity at the center radiates less sound power. © 2021 World Scientific Publishing Company.Item Acoustic radiation and transmission loss of FG-Graphene composite plate under nonuniform edge loading(Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Gunasekaran, V.; Jeyaraj, J.; Mailan Chinnapandi, L.B.The influence of nonuniform edge loads on the acoustic response of a functionally graded graphene reinforced composite plate is investigated analytically. The energy method is implemented to calculate the buckling load (Pcr). An analytical method based on Reddy's third-order shear deformation theorem is used to obtain the vibration response, and acoustic response is obtained using Rayleigh Integral. The nature of edge load variation on buckling and vibro-acoustic response is significant. Free vibration mode shape changes with an increase in edge load and consequently affects the resonant amplitude of responses also especially for the plates with a higher aspect ratio. Volume fraction and dispersion pattern of graphene nano-platelets also influences the resonance amplitudes. Plate with FG?GRCC dispersion pattern has improved buckling and vibro-acoustic response behavior. Similarly, change in sound transmission loss level is significant in the stiffness region compared to the damping and mass dominated region. © 2021 Elsevier Masson SASItem Buckling and Free Vibration of Porous Functionally Graded Metal Ceramic Beams under Thermal and Mechanical Loading: A Comparative Study(Springer, 2021) Patil, H.B.; Jeyaraj, J.; Mailan Chinnapandi, L.B.Buckling and free vibration characteristics of functionally graded porous metal ceramic beams subjected to mechanical and thermal loads are presented. Five-noded, beam element with ten degrees of freedom is used to analyse the buckling and vibration behaviour. The effects of porosity, porosity pattern, functional grading of material, elastic foundations, slenderness ratio and different boundary conditions are analysed for critical comparison of behaviour of the beam under thermal and mechanical load. Results revealed that buckling and dynamic behaviour of the beam under thermal load is significantly different compared to the mechanical load. It is also observed that nature of porosity distribution and its volume fraction also influences the buckling strength significantly. Beam with uniform porosity shows better thermal buckling strength likewise beam with graded porosity for mechanical buckling strength. © 2021, The Institution of Engineers (India).Item Acoustic Response of an Isotropic Beam under Axially Variable Loads Using Ritz and Rayleigh Integral Methods(Polska Akademia Nauk, 2022) Somi Naidu, S.N.; Jeyaraj, J.; Mailan Chinnapandi, L.B.; Reddi Chintapalli, V.S.N.R.Vibro-acoustic response of an isotropic beam under the action of variable axial loads (VALs), is presented in the study. Effects of six different types of VALs and three types of end conditions on buckling, free vibration and sound radiation characteristics are investigated. Static buckling and free vibration behaviours using shear and normal deformable theorem and Ritz method. However, the forced vibration response is evaluated using modal superposition method and the acoustic radiation characteristics are obtained using Rayleigh integral. The nature of variation of VALs and end conditions are influencing buckling and free vibration characteristics remarkably. Results indicate that the acoustic response is highly sensitive to the nature of VAL and intensity of the VAL. In general, sound power at resonance decreases when the magnitude of VAL is increased. © © 2022 S.N. Balireddy et al.
