    Static and Dynamic Analysis of Nano Beams based on Second Strain Gradient Theory

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kamali, Farhad (Author) ; Eskandari, Morteza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this thesis, static and dynamic analysis of nano beams based on second strain gradient theory is presented. Due to their small sizes, nano electro mechanical devices (NEMS) hold tremendous promise for novel, versatile and very sensitive devices for different applications ranging from actuators, transducers and also mass, force, light and frequency detectors. Therefore accurate modeling and analysis of such devices has an important role in their design and performance improvement. Neglecting the size effect, traditional theory of elasticity can not be suitable to predict mechanical behavior of these systems and so, it should be used non-classical theories which include size dependency...

    Chatter instability analysis of spinning micro-end mill with process damping effect via semi-discretization approach

    , Article Acta Mechanica ; Vol. 225, issue. 3 , 2014 , pp. 715-734 ; ISSN: 00015970 Tajalli, S. A ; Movahhedy, M. R ; Akbari, J ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    In this paper, the stability of delay differential equations (DDEs), describing self-excited vibrations in a micro-milling process, is investigated based on semi-discretization (SD) method. Due to the stubby geometry of micro-tools, the shear deformation and rotary inertia effects are considered for modeling the structure. The extended Hamilton's principle is used to derive a detailed dynamical model of the spinning micro-tool with the support of misalignment in which the gyroscopic effects cause coupling of equations. Considering the actual geometry of the micro-end mill, exact dynamic stiffness (DS) formulations are developed to investigate the tool's free vibration characteristics. The...

    , Article Shock and Vibration ; Vol. 2014 , 2014 ; ISSN: 10709622 Mamandi, A ; Kargarnovin, M. H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The dynamic response of a Timoshenko beam with immovable ends resting on a nonlinear viscoelastic foundation and subjected to motion of a traveling mass moving with a constant velocity is studied. Primarily, the beam's nonlinear governing coupled PDEs of motion for the lateral and longitudinal displacements as well as the beam's cross-sectional rotation are derived using Hamilton's principle. On deriving these nonlinear coupled PDEs the stretching effect of the beam's neutral axis due to the beam's fixed end conditions in conjunction with the von-Karman strain-displacement relations is considered. To obtain the dynamic responses of the beam under the act of a moving mass, derived nonlinear...

    , Article Advances in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics ; Vol. 6, issue. 3 , 2014 , pp. 299-306 ; ISSN: 20700733 Firouz-Abadi, R. D ; Mohammadkhani, H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    This paper aims at investigating the resonance frequencies and stability of a long Graphene Nano-Ribbon (GNR) carrying electric current. The governing equation of motion is obtained based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam model along with Hamilton's principle. The transverse force distribution on the GNR due to the interaction of the electric current with its own magnetic field is determined by the Biot-Savart and Lorentz force laws. Using Galerkin's method, the governing equation is solved and the effect of current strength and dimensions of the GNR on the stability and resonance frequencies are investigated

    , Article Nonlinear Dynamics ; Vol. 77, issue. 1-2 , 2014 , p. 87-98 Abtahi, M ; Vossoughi, G ; Meghdari, A ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The operational range of microcantilever beams under electrostatic force can be extended beyond pull-in in the presence of an intermediate dielectric layer.

First, a polynomial approximate shape function with a time-dependent variable for each configuration is defined. Using Hamilton's principle, dynamic equations of microcantilever in all configurations have been derived. Comparison between modeling...

    Abstract
    Stability analysis of a horizontal cantilevered pipe conveying fluid with an inclined terminal nozzle is considered in this paper. The pipe is modelled as a cantilevered Euler-Bernoulli beam, and the flow-induced inertia, Coriolis and centrifugal forces along the pipe as well as the follower force induced by the jet-flow are taken into account. The governing equations of the coupled bending-torsional vibrations of the pipe are obtained using extended Hamilton's principle and are then discretized via the Galerkin method. The resulting eigenvalue problem is then solved, and several cases are examined to determine the effect of nozzle inclination angle, nozzle aspect ratio, mass ratio and...

    Abstract
    In this paper, the strain gradient theory, a non-classical continuum theory capable of capturing the size effect observed in micro-scale structures, is employed in order to investigate the size-dependent mechanical behavior of microbars.

    Abstract
    In this paper size-dependent static and dynamic behavior of nonlinear Euler-Bernoulli beams made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) is investigated on the basis of the strain gradient theory. The volume fraction of the material constituents is assumed to be varying through the thickness of the beam based on a power law. As a consequence, the material properties of the microbeam (including length scales) are varying in the direction of the beam thickness. To develop the model, the usual simplifying assumption which considers the length scale parameter to be constant through the thickness is avoided and equivalent length scale parameters are introduced for functionally graded microbeams...

    Abstract
    The dynamic behavior of a functionally graded (FG) simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to a moving oscillator has been investigated in this paper. The Young's modulus and the mass density of the FG beam vary continuously in the thickness direction according to the power-law model.

By employing Petrov-Galerkin method, the system of fourth-order partial differential equations of motion has been reduced to a system of second-order ordinary differential equations. The resulting equations are solved using Runge-Kutta numerical scheme. In this study, the effect of the various parameters such as power-law...

    Abstract
    In this article, the dynamic responses of a Timoshenko beam subjected to a moving mass, and a moving sprung mass are analyzed.

    In this paper axial and torsional vibrations of a drillstring are studied using cylindrical superelement. Drillstring vibration equation is derived by calculating kinetic and potential energy and work done by external forces on drillstring, and utilizing Hamilton's principle.

To calculate the vibrational response of drillstring, a computational finite element scheme was developed. For a typical case of oil well drillstring, the... 

    In-plane and transverse eigenmodes of high-speed rotating composite disks

    , Article Journal of Applied Mechanics, Transactions ASME ; Volume 80, Issue 1 , 2013 ; 00218936 (ISSN) Dousti, S ; Abbas Jalali, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    2013
    Abstract
    We apply Hamilton's principle and model the coupled in-plane and transverse vibrations of high-speed spinning disks, which are fiber-reinforced circumferentially. We search for eigenmodes in the linear regime using a collocation scheme, and compare the mode shapes of composite and isotropic disks. As the azimuthal wavenumber varies, the radial nodes of in-plane waves are remarkably displaced in isotropic disks while they resist such displacements in composite disks. The reverse of this phenomenon happens for transversal waves and the radial nodes move toward the outer disk edge as the azimuthal wavenumber is increased in composite disks. This result is in accordance with the predictions of...

    , Article Journal of Sound and Vibration ; Volume 357 , November , 2015 , Pages 377-408 ; 0022460X (ISSN) Mozaffari Jovin, S ; Firouz Abadi, R. D ; Roshanian, J ; Sharif University of Technology
    Academic Press  2015
    Abstract
    This paper undertakes to facilitate appraisal of aeroelastic interaction of a locally distributed, flap-type control surface with aircraft wings operating in a subsonic potential flow field. The extended Hamilton's principle serves as a framework to ascertain the Euler-Lagrange equations for coupled bending-torsional-flap vibration. An analytical solution to this boundary-value problem is then accomplished by assumed modes and the extended Galerkin's method. The developed aeroelastic model considers both the inherent flexibility of the control surface displaced on the wing and the inertial coupling between these two flexible bodies. The structural deformations also obey the Euler-Bernoulli...

    Abstract
    There has been much research in developing scratch drive actuators (SDAs), but because of their dynamic complexity, these microelectromechanical system-based actuators have not been dynamically analyzed up to now. In this paper, a comprehensive model is presented to describe the dynamic behavior of SDA and its components during stepwise motion. In this model, Hamilton's principle and Newton's method are used to extract dynamic equations of the SDA plate and dynamic equation for the linear motion of SDA. This model presents a good insight into the operating principles of SDA by predicting the variation of different variables, such as bushing angle, contact length, horizontal position, and...
