Free Vibration Analysis of Fiber Metal Laminate Annular Plate by State-Space Based Differential Quadrature Method

الملخص EN

A three-dimensional elasticity theory by means of a state-space based differential quadrature method is presented for free vibration analysis of fiber metal laminate annular plate.

The kinds of composite material and metal layers are considered to be S2-glass and aluminum, respectively.

A semianalytical approach which uses state-space in the thickness and differential quadrature in the radial direction is implemented for evaluating the nondimensional natural frequencies of the annular plates.

The influences of changes in boundary condition, plate thickness, and lay-up direction on the natural frequencies are studied.

A comparison is also made with the numerical results reported by ABAQUS software which shows an excellent agreement.
