    Abstract
    In this contribution, we have investigated the effects of magnetoelastic loads on free vibration characteristics of the magnetorheological-based sandwich beam. The considered sandwich beam consists of a magnetorheological core with elastic top and base layers. For these means, the structural governing equations are derived using the Hamilton principle and solved by the finite element method. The results are validated in comparison with the existing results in the literature. The effects of variation in the parameters such as magnetic field intensity and the thickness of the core and top layers on the deviation of the first natural frequency and the corresponding loss factor are studied as... 

    An Analytical Approach to Nonlinear Vibrations of a Three-Layered Sandwich Beam with a Viscoelastic Core, under the Effects of Internal Resonance, Employing MMS

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology PashaJavid, Babak (Author) ; Haddadpour, Hassan (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Vibrations with high amplitudes in continuous systems and models with multiple degrees of freedom, in specific conditions, is concomitant with a phenomenon called internal resonance. In the presence of this phenomenon, energy is transferred from one directly excited mode to the other vibrating modes of the structure results in response of the structure to be combination of the excited modes. In that situation occurrence of the internal resonance may decrease the level of undesired vibrations of the structure. This behavior is of interest especially in sandwich structures with viscoelastic cores that are designated to improve the damping characteristics of the structure and the property may...

    In this research, the effect of application of viscoelastic material with fractional derivatives pattern in aeroelastic stability analysis for a sandwich wing, has been examined. In order to study the wing’s aeroelastic behavior and the effect of inner layer on aeroelastic instability boundaries (fluttering), the wing is modeled as a cantilever sandwich beam with a fractional viscoelastic core. The Wagner approximation is used for applying the unstable aeroelastic loads. To obtain the characteristics and behaviors of the structure some assumptions including non-classical effects, are considered. These non-classical effects are the inner layer shear stress, the axial movements, the wing’s... 

    Optimization of Dynamic Properties in Rotating Sandwich Beams with Partial Magnetorheological Core

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mehrbod, Mehrzad (Author) ; Kouchakzadeh, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The present study investigates the effect of MR materials on the vibrations of three-layer pretwisted rotating beams. For this purpose, by considering MR material as the core of the rotating beam and using Hamilton's principle, the equations governing the three-layer rotating beam are extracted. After solving the desired equation, we optimize the dynamic behavior of the three-layer beam at different rotational speeds. Using the Genetic Algorithm optimization tool, the desired beam weight will be minimized and maximum damping will be applied to the desired system. The goal is to find the optimum magnetic field strength for maximum damping in the system at any rotational speed, in addition to...

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Saadati, Saeed (Author) ; Kouchakzadeh, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The main purpose of this study is the analysis of low velocity impact on the light weight sandwich beams. Some parameters such as weight, failure mode, and impact energy absorption capability are very essential in the design of sandwich beams. The failure mode map is a technique to design sandwich structures, in which no single component is over-designed with respect to other components. In this study, the failure mode map of foam core sandwich beams composed of E-glass/Epoxy and PVC foam is drawn and investigated by an analytical method. For this purpose, displacement relations for bending of a sandwich beam are written using higher order theory. In addition, the sandwich beam is modeled...

    Abstract
    Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are a class of smart materials which can recover their shape even after many shape changes in application of an external stimulus. In this paper, flexural behavior of a composite beam, constructed of a corrugated part filled with SMPs, is studied. This composite beam is applicable in sensor and actuator applications. Since the corrugated profiles display higher stiffness-to-mass ratio in the transverse to the corrugation direction, the beams with a corrugated part along the transverse direction are stiffer than ones with a corrugated part along the length. Employing a developed constitutive model for SMPs and the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, the behavior of the...

    In this paper, we investigate the effects of temperature and magnetoelastic load, on the free vibration of an elastomer sandwich beam with magnetorheological (MR) core and functionally graded material (FGM) constraining lamina under high temperature environment. This sandwich beam is named FGMR beam in this paper. The material properties of the functionally graded material layers are assumed to be temperature-dependent and vary continuously through-the-thickness according to a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. Also, it is assumed that the beam may be clamped, hinged, or free at its ends and is subjected to one-dimensional steady-state heat...
