Vibration analysis of magnetorheological fluid circular sandwich plates with magnetostrictive facesheets exposed to monotonic magnetic field located on visco-Pasternak substrate

摘要

Magnetorheological fluids are materials that react to the applied magnetic field and are converted to the quasi-solid phase from the liquid one. Their applications in control and suppression of vibration have interested scientists nowadays. The present study is focused on the vibrational behavior of magnetorheological fluid circular plates that are embedded with magnetostrictive face layers. Magnetostrictive materials are also playing an important role in vibration control and are used widely in smart devices such as sensors and actuators. The structure is exposed to the transverse monotonic magnetic field and is located on the visco-Pasternak elastic substrate. Using Hamilton's principle and based on classical plate theory, the motion equations and boundary conditions are extracted, and the generalized differential quadrature method is selected to solve them. Three different types of magnetorheological fluids are considered, and their effect on the results is discussed. The outcomes of this study can be used to design more capable and precise dampers, smart structures, and devices.
