Flexural vibrations of discontinuous layered elastically bonded beams
2018
Abstract This paper addresses the dynamic flexural behavior of layered elastically bonded beams carrying an arbitrary number of elastic translational supports and rotational joints. The beams are referred to as discontinuous for the discontinuities of response variables at the application points of supports/joints. The Euler-Bernoulli hypothesis is assumed to hold for each layer separately, and a linear constitutive relation between the horizontal interlayer slip and the interlaminar shear force is considered. Based on the theory of generalized functions to handle the discontinuities of response variables due to supports/joints, exact beam modes are obtained from a characteristic equation b…
Moving multi-loads problem in layered cracked beams with interlayer slip
2017
This contribution concerns the vibration response of layered cracked uniform beams with interlayer slip under moving multiple loads. Considering a linear constitutive relation between the horizontal slip and the interlaminar shear force, the Euler-Bernoulli hypothesis is assumed to hold for each layer separately. Modeling cracks as internal elastic rotational joints, related discontinuities of the response variables are treated by the theory of generalized functions. In this manner, exact eigenfunctions are derived from a characteristic equation built as determinant of 6x6 matrix, for any number of cracks. Building pertinent orthogonality conditions for the deflection eigenfunctions, the re…
On the moving multi-loads problem in discontinuous beam structures with interlayer slip
2017
Abstract This contribution proposes an efficient approach to the moving multi-loads problem on two-layer beams with interlayer slip and elastic translational supports. The Euler-Bernoulli hypothesis is assumed to hold for each layer separately, and a linear constitutive relation between the horizontal slip and the interlaminar shear force is considered. It is shown that, using the theory of generalized functions to treat the discontinuous response variables, exact eigenfunctions can be derived from a characteristic equation built as determinant of a 6 x 6 matrix. Building pertinent orthogonality conditions for the deflection eigenfunctions, a closed-form analytical response is established i…
