Vibration and Damping Analysis of Thin-Walled Box Beams

Finite Element Vibration Analysis of Laminated Composite Folded Plate Structures

“…The works of Reddy [18], Kant et al [11], Meimaris and Day [16], Bert and Chen [2], Chatterjee and Kulkarni [3], Dong and Chun [6] and Maiti and Sinha [13][14][15] may be cited to name only a few. Recently, Suresh and Malhotra [19] conducted damped free vibration analysis of composite box beams using 4 noded plate finite element with five degrees of freedom (u, v, w, θ x and θ y ) per node.…”

Vibration and damping of composite sandwich box column with viscoelastic/electrorheological fluid core and performance comparison

“…Even though there are a lot of papers dealing with the vibration and damping analysis of sandwich structures with viscoelastic or ER, only a few papers [18,19] focus on the effect on the damping characteristics of sandwich box column. Recently, Ramkumar et al have investigated the damping characteristics of isotropic sandwich box column with ER core as damping layer.…”

A study of transient response of initially stressed composite sandwich folded plates

“…To the best of the author's knowledge, the work of Allman [8] is one of the few attempts to incorporate consistent mass matrix containing rotary inertia terms in an element formulation. Suresh and Malhotra [9] used a four node plate bending element with drilling degrees of freedom based on a first order shear deformation theory to determine the natural frequencies and modal loss factors of box beams. Niyogi et al [10] analysed composite folded plate structures using a nine node plate bending element with drilling degree of freedom based on a first order shear deformation theory.…”
