- Abstract
The functionally graded composite structures with viscoelastic polymers inherits the excellent performance of functionally graded composites and also possesses large damping performance, which has broad application prospects in the aerospace and mechanical engineering fields. However, due to the complexity of the structure itself, there is limited literature available on its theoretical modeling for efficient solutions. To predict its dynamic performance, a simplified dynamic model of the functionally graded composite structures with viscoelastic polymers is established. This model takes into account the displacement transfer relationship between the functional graded composite layer and the viscoelastic polymer layer. The governing differential equations are obtained by applying the Navier method and complex modulus theory. These equations are then solved using the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The validity of the theoretical model is confirmed by comparing it with existing literature and the results obtained from ANSYS software. Additionally, the model that has been developed is used to analyze how the graded index and elastic modulus of the structure, as well as its geometric parameters, affect its vibration and damping characteristics.
