The static stability of an asymmetric sandwich beam with viscoelastic core on viscoelastic supports at the ends and subjected to an axial pulsating load and a steady, one-dimensional temperature gradient is investigated by computational method. The equations of motion and associated boundary conditions are obtained using the Hamilton's energy principle. Then, these equations of motion and the associated boundary conditions are nondimensionalised. A set of Hill's equations is obtained from the non-dimensional equations of motion by the application of the general Galerkin method. The static buckling loads are obtained from the Hill's equations. The effects of shear parameter, geometric parameters, core loss factors, and thermal gradient on the non-dimensional static buckling loads zones have been investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
