Analytical solutions for density functionally gradient magneto-electro-elastic cantilever beams
Aimin Jian and Haojiang Ding
Abstract
The general solution for two-dimensional magneto-electro-elastic media in terms of four harmonic displacement functions is proposed analytically. The expressions of specific solutions of magneto-electro-elastic plane problems with specific body forces are derived. Finally, based on the general solution in the case of distinct eigenvalues and the specific solution for density functionally gradient media, two kinds of beam problems with body forces depending only on the z or x coordinate are solved by the trial-and-error method.
Key Words
general solution; magneto-electro-elastic plane; density functionally gradient media; analytical solutions.
