Sommario

Si considerano le vibrazioni libere laterali di un'asta viscoelastica non lineare soggetta inizialmente ad un carico assiale di compressione. La legge costitutiva si compone di un termine elastico lineare e di termini non lineari nello sforzo sia per lo scorrimento viscoso transitorio sia per quello stazionario; essa è del tipo Kelvin generalizzato non lineare. Si linearizza il problema assumendo che gli sforzi causati dall'oscillazione siano molto più piccoli degli sforzi iniziali. Si studia il problema per cinque particolari modelli viscoelastici usando la teoria valida per le piccole deformazioni, e si discutono risultati numerici validi per un acciaio inossidabile.

Summary

The free lateral vibration of a nonlinear viscoelastic beam column subjected to an initial compressive axial load is considered. The costitutive law is formulated with a linear elastic term and with power functions of stress in the transient and steady creep terms, and is of the nonlinear generalized Kelvin type. By assuming that the stress caused by the oscillation is of much smaller magnitude than the initial stress, the problem is linearized. The problem is analyzed for five special viscoelastic models using small deformation theory, and numerical results are discussed for a stainless steel alloy.
