Numerical modeling of vibration and damping of higher-order magnetorheological elastomer polar orthotropic composite sectorial/annular plates
Abstract This study contributes to the modeling and analysis of damping and vibration in the innovative composite sector and annular plates composed of a magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) reinforced with glass fibers. These plates are formed of laminate construction. For the purpose of this investigation, polar orthotropic laminas are used. The generalized Maxwell constitutive law is employed in order to describe the tunable viscoelastic properties of the MR elastomer, including storage and modal loss factor. The application of a magnetic field enables one to exert control over the storage and loss moduli of these materials. In addition, the effective mechanical properties of the MRE composite (MREC) are determined through a modified version of the Voigt micromechanical rule and the Halpin–Tsai rule. In order to define the displacement field of the plate, a hyperbolic higher-order shear deformation approach is used. By adopting Hamilton’s principle, one may get the equations describing the motion as well as the relevant boundary and continuity conditions. In order to solve this system of highly coupled partial differential equations (PDEs), the 2D generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) approach is exploited. A comparison was made between the developed model and those available in the literature to validate the accuracy and convergence quality of the solution technique and formulation. A complete investigation is carried out into the influence of the magnetic field on the free-damped response of the MREC sector and annular plates. In addition, the effects of the composite and geometric properties of the structure on the natural frequencies and modal loss factors of the structure have been examined.
Highlights Free-damped vibrations of laminated annular and sector plates made of these materials are investigated. Generalized Maxwell’s constitutive model for viscoelastic MRECs is used. 2-dimensional Chebyshev collocation method is applied. Mode shape switching phenomenon is explored.
