Abstract
The free transverse vibrations of two-dimensional functionally graded double Euler–Bernoulli beam system connected through a variable Winkler elastic layer are presented. The Modulus of elasticity and the density of the material of the beams are assumed to vary along the thickness and the length of the beams according to power-law and exponential functions, respectively. The governing differential equations of motion are established by the means of Hamilton’s principle. The Chebyshev Spectral Collocation Method (CSCM) is used to calculate the natural frequencies of the two-dimensional functionally graded (2D-FG) double beams. The effects of several parameters such as the height ratio of the beams, the stiffness of the coupling layer, the axial and transverse functionally graded indexes, and the boundary conditions on the natural frequencies of the 2D-FG double beams have been investigated. The frequencies obtained from the CSCM have been validated by comparing them with those available in previous literature.
