By using a high order sandwich beams theory which is modified by considering the transverse flexibility of the core, free vibration characteristics of two models of sandwich beams are studied in this paper. In type-I, functionally graded layers coat a homogeneous core, and in type-II, an FG core is covered by homogeneous face sheets. To increase the accuracy of the model of the FGM properties, even and uneven porosity distributions are applied, and all materials are considered temperature-dependent. Nonlinear Lagrange strain and thermal stresses of the face sheets and in-plane strain of the core are considered. To obtain the governing equations of motion, Hamilton’s principle is used and a Galerkin method is used to solve them for simply supported and clamped boundary conditions. To verify the results of this study, they are compared with the results of literatures. Also, the effect of variation of temperature, some geometrical parameters and porosities on the frequency are studied.

The objective of this study is to examine the stress concentration factor around a pin-loaded hole in a metallic matrix composite material, analytically and numerically. It is assumed that all unidirectional fibers lie in the metallic matrix while the shear stress in fibers is discarded. To generally derive the equilibrium equation for all fibers and the metallic matrix, the previous shear-lag theory had been improved and the extension in the metallic matrix was considered. Afterwards, the equilibrium equation was solved by the eigenvalue method while the displacement field and stress distribution around the pin-loaded hole were computed. Having calculated stress concentration factors and the displacement field in a unidirectional multi-layered composite material, we compared the analytical results with those numerical values from other references. Additionally, the effect of the pin’s diameter, as well as the edge-hole distance on maximum stress concentration factor was investigated. To recapitulate, it is seen that the modified shear-lag theory can simulate the mechanism of the load transfer between metallic matrices.

Impact is one of very important subjects which always have been considered in mechanical science. Nature of impact is such that which makes its control a hard task. Therefore it is required to present the transfer of impact to other vulnerable part of a structure, when it is necessary, one of the best method of absorbing energy of impact , is by using Thin-walled tubes these tubes collapses under impact and with absorption of energy, it prevents the damage to other parts. Purpose of recent study is to survey the deformation and energy absorption of tubes with different type of cross section (rectangular or square) and with similar volumes, height, mean cross section, and material under loading. Lateral loading of tubes are quasi-static type and beside as numerical analysis, also experimental experiences has been performed to evaluate the accuracy of the results. Results from the surveys is indicates that in a same conditions which mentioned above, samples with square cross section ,absorb more energy compare to rectangular cross section, and also by increscent in thickness, energy absorption would be more.
