Free vibration analysis of pre-stressed FGM Timoshenko beams under large transverse deflection by a variational method

A theoretical study on free vibration behavior of pre-stressed functionally graded material (FGM) beam is carried out. Power law variation of volume fraction along the thickness direction is considered. Geometric non-linearity is incorporated through von Kármán non-linear strain–displacement relatio...
