Abstract
It is our main objective to find the critical load for three beams with cross sectional heterogeneity. Each beam has three supports, of which the intermediate one is a spring support. Determination of the critical load for these beams leads to three point boundary value problems (BVPs) associated with homogeneous boundary conditions—the mentioned BVPs constitute three eigenvalue problems. They are solved by using a novel solution strategy based on the Green functions that belong to these BVPs: the eigenvalue problems established for the critical load are transformed into eigenvalue problems governed by homogeneous Fredholm integral equations with kernels that can be given in closed forms provided that the Green function of each BVP is known. Then the eigenvalue problems governed by the Fredholm integral equations can be manipulated into algebraic eigenvalue problems solved numerically by using effective algorithms. It is an advantage of the way we attack these problems that the formalism established and the results obtained remain valid for homogeneous beams as well. The numerical results for the critical forces can be applied to solve some stability problems in the engineering practice.
期刊介绍:
Applied Mechanics Reviews (AMR) is an international review journal that serves as a premier venue for dissemination of material across all subdisciplines of applied mechanics and engineering science, including fluid and solid mechanics, heat transfer, dynamics and vibration, and applications.AMR provides an archival repository for state-of-the-art and retrospective survey articles and reviews of research areas and curricular developments. The journal invites commentary on research and education policy in different countries. The journal also invites original tutorial and educational material in applied mechanics targeting non-specialist audiences, including undergraduate and K-12 students.
