ON FREE VIBRATION OF FUNCTIONALLY GRADED EULER-BERNOULLI BEAM MODELS BASED ON THE NON-LOCAL THEORY

摘要

In this paper, the governing equations and boundary conditions of a functionally graded Euler-Bernoulli beam are developed based on the non-local theory of elasticity. Afterward, the free vibration is investigated and the effects of the axial load, the non-local parameter and the power index on the natural frequency of a hinged-hinged beam is assessed. The results indicate that the non-local parameter has a decreasing effect on the frequency while the power index has an increasing effect. It is also noted that the effect of the axial load is increasing too.
