Abstract
In this paper, a forced vibration model of composite beams under the action of periodic excitation force considering geometric nonlinearity is proposed. For the strain–displacement relationship, Timoshenko beam theory is used, and the element and system matrices are developed using the differential quadrature finite element method. Each node has 3 degrees of freedom. The incremental harmonic balance method is used to solve the nonlinear forced vibration equation. In order to prove the validity of the proposed model, the solution of the Duffing equation is calculated using the analytical method and the proposed method. Next, linear forced vibration analysis of the beam made of isotropic material is performed and compared with the result of ABAQUS. The results are very close. Based on these comparisons, nonlinear vibration phenomena of composite beams are studied under the action of periodic forces.
