With the advantages of large span, light deadweight and convenient construction, the steel-concrete composite beam (SCCB) has been rapidly developed as a medium span bridge. Compared with common beams, the global stiffness of SCCB is discontinuous and in a staged distribution. In this paper, the analysis model for the simply-supported SCCB is established and the vibration equations are derived. The natural vibration characteristics of a simply-supported SCCB are analyzed, and are compared with the theoretical and experimental results. A curvature mode measurement method is proposed to identify the shear connector damage of SCCB, with the stiffness reduction factor to describe the variation of shear connection stiffness. By analysis on the $1^{st}$ to $3^{rd}$ vertical modes, the distribution of shear connectors between the steel girder and the concrete slab are well identified, and the damage locations and failure degrees are detected. The results show that the curvature modes can be used for identification of the damage location.

Two or more distinct materials are combined into a single functionally graded material (FGM) where the microstructural composition and properties change gradually. Thermal post-buckling behavior of uniform slender FGM beams is investigated independently using the classical Rayleigh-Ritz (RR) formulation and the versatile Finite Element Analysis (FEA) formulation developed in this paper. The von-Karman strain-displacement relations are used to account for moderately large deflections of FGM beams. Bending-extension coupling arising due to heterogeneity of material through the thickness is included. Simply supported and clamped beams with axially immovable ends are considered in the present study. Post-buckling load versus deflection curves and buckled mode shapes obtained from both the RR and FEA formulations for different volume fraction exponents show an excellent agreement with the available literature results for simply supported ends. Response of the FGM beam with clamped ends is studied for the first time and the results from both the RR and FEA formulations show a very good agreement. Though the response of the FGM beam could have been studied more accurately by FEA formulation alone, the authors aim to apply the RR formulation is to find an approximate closed form post-buckling solutions for the FGM beams. Further, the use of the RR formulation clearly demonstrates the effect of bending-extension coupling on the post-buckling response of the FGM beams.

This article present the free vibration analysis of simply supported perfect and imperfect (porous) FG beams using a high order trigonometric deformation theory. It is assumed that the material properties of the porous beam vary across the thickness. Unlike other theories, the number of unknown is only three. This theory has a parabolic shear deformation distribution across the thickness. So it is useless to use the shear correction factors. The Hamilton's principle will be used herein to determine the equations of motion. Since, the beams are simply supported the Navier's procedure will be retained. To show the precision of this model, several comparisons have been made between the present results and those of existing theories in the literature.

The effect of temperature dependent material properties on the free vibration of FG porous beams is investigated in the present paper. A quasi-3D shear deformation solution is used involves only three unknown function. The mechanical properties which are considered to be temperature-dependent as well as the porosity distributions are assumed to gradually change along the thickness direction according to defined law. The beam is supposed to be simply supported and lying on variable elastic foundation. The differential equation system governing the free vibration behavior of porous beams is derived based on the Hamilton principle. Navier's method for simply supported systems is then used to determine and compute the frequencies of FG porous beam. The results of the present formulation are validated by comparing with those available literatures. Finally, the effects of several parameters such as porosity distribution and the parameters of variable elastic foundation on the free vibration behavior of temperature-dependent FG beams are presented and discussed in detail.

The objective of this work is to analyze geometrically nonlinear static analysis a simply supported laminated composite beam subjected to a non-follower transversal point load at the midpoint of the beam. In the nonlinear model of the laminated beam, total Lagrangian finite element model of is used in conjunction with the Timoshenko beam theory. The considered non-linear problem is solved considering full geometric non-linearity by using incremental displacement-based finite element method in conjunction with Newton-Raphson iteration method. There is no restriction on the magnitudes of deflections and rotations in contradistinction to von-Karman strain displacement relations of the beam. In the numerical results, the effects of the fiber orientation angles and the stacking sequence of laminates on the nonlinear deflections and stresses of the composite laminated beam are examined and discussed. Convergence study is performed. Also, the difference between the geometrically linear and nonlinear analysis of laminated beam is investigated in detail.

The finite element method was adopted to find out the natural frequencies of a sinusoidally tapered beam with simply supported boundary conditions. The parameters considered in the numerical analysis are the taper parameter, $\alpha$ ($\alpha$=0.0, 0.1, ~ , 2.0) and the sectional property parameters, m and n [(m, n):(0, 2), (1, 3), (2, 4)]. It is generally known that the results of the numerical analysis corresponding to each pair of sectional property parameters, (m, n) are represented by second order polynominals of $\alpha$ . The coefficients of a in the polynominals are determined by using the regression technique, which reveals small m in most cases of given sectional property parameters (m, n).

일반적으로 보아 고유진동수는 주어진 보의 진동해석 및 동적 안정해석에서 대단히 중요한 역할을 한다. 그러나 보의 단면이 부재축에 따라 연속적으로 변할 때의 고유진동수 산정은 해석적 방법으로는 불가능하거나 대단히 복잡한 것이 보통이기 때문에 수치해석법을 이용하게 된다. 여기서는 유한요소법에 의하여 고유진동수를 산정하였으며 수치해석법의 결과를 일반화하기 위하여 taper ratio를 변수로 하는 회귀식을 제안하였다. 회귀식을 이용한 고유진동수의 추정치는 해석적 방법으로 얻어진 값 또는 수치해석 결과로부터 얻어진 값들과 비교적 잘 일치한다.

In this paper, the dynamic stability of a cracked simply supported pipe conveying fluid with an attached mass is investigated. Also, the effect of attached mass on the dynamic stability of a simply supported pipe conveying fluid is presented for the different positions and depth of the crack. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by the energy expressions using extended Hamilton's principle. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged pipe segments. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of a fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. Finally, the critical flow velocities and stability maps of the pipe conveying fluid are obtained by changing the attached mass and crack severity.

Finally, the critical flow velocities and stability maps of the pipe conveying fluid are obtained by changing the attached masses and crack severity. As attached masses are increased, the region of re-stabilization of the system is decreased but the region of divergence is increased.
