Abstract

This investigation is concerned with a numerical model of piezoelectric material beam with graded properties. A refined trigonometric shear model is employed. The material properties are assumed to be varied along the depth according to the volume fraction of constituents. The materials constants are evaluated using power law rule. Hamilton’s principle is employed to acquire the governing equations along with associated boundary conditions for FGPM beam. A numerical model is derived for piezoelectric beam with graded properties. The generalized differential quadrature method is used to discretize the equation of motion. Result for fixed-fixed end condition is presented. Effects of power exponents and geometric parameter on natural frequencies are also reported.
