  4. Abstract:
  5. In this study, the homotopy analysis method is used to obtain an accurate analytical solution for fundamental non-linear natural frequency and corresponding displacement of tapered beams. Comparison between the obtained results and numerical solutions shows that the first-order approximation of present study leads to accurate solutions with a maximum relative error less than 0.5%
