Nonlinear forced vibration analysis of higher order shear-deformable functionally graded microbeam resting on nonlinear elastic foundation based on modified couple stress theory
Geometrically nonlinear forced vibration analysis of higher order shear-deformable functionally graded microbeam is presented, where the beam is supported on a three-parameter Winkler–Pasternak-type nonlinear elastic foundation and subjected to a harmonically varying distributed load. The modified couple stress theory of elasticity is employed in the formulation to address the size-dependent effect. Hamilton’s principle is used to derive the displacement-based governing equations considering Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory. Ritz method is followed to convert the governing equations to nonlinear algebraic form in the frequency domain by approximating the displacement fields. A mixed algorithm for nonlinear equations based on the iterative substitution method with successive relaxation and Broyden’s method is successfully employed to solve the stable regions of the frequency-response curves. The results are presented for hinged and clamped beams, and the effects of different parameters such as size-dependent thickness, load amplitude, foundation parameters, and gradation-profile parameter are studied. The effect of thermal loading due to uniform temperature rise is also studied considering temperature-dependent material properties.
