This article addresses the problem of finite-time stability for uncertain neutral nonhomogeneous fractional-order systems with time-varying delays where a stability test procedure is suggested. Based on the extended form of the generalized Gr?nwall inequality, a new sufficient condition for robust finite-time stability of such systems is established. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained result.

Research on phononic and acoustic materials and structures emerged in the recent decade as a result of switching from theoretical physics to applications in various engineering fields. Periodicity is the main characteristic of the phononic medium stemming from periodic material phases, geometry or the boundary condition with wave propagation properties analysed through frequency band structure. To obtain these characteristics, the generalized Bloch theorem is usually applied to obtain the dispersion relations of viscously damped resonant metamaterials. Here we develop a novel analytical approach to analyse the fractionally damped model of phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials introduced through the fractional-order Kelvin–Voigt and Maxwell damping models. In the numerical study, the results obtained using the proposed models are compared against the elastic cases of the phononic crystal and locally resonant acoustic metamaterial, where significant differences in dispersion curves are identified. We show that the fractional-order Maxwell model is more suitable for describing the dissipation effect throughout the spectrum due to the possibility of fitting both, the order of fractional derivative and the damping parameter.

A survey of the selected published criteria ? expressed by the properties of the system matrices ? for the stability and instability of linear mechanical systems subjected to potential and circulatory forces is presented. In particular, recent generalizations of the well-known Merkin instability theorem are reported. Several simple numerical examples are used to illustrate the usefulness of the presented criteria and also to compare them.

. This paper investigates size effect phenomena associated with the divergence of the transpose of plastic distortion in plastically deformed isotropic materials. The principle of virtual power, balance of energy, second law of thermodynamics, and codirectionality hypothesis are used to formulate the governing microforce balance and thermodynamically consistent constitutive relations for dissipative microscopic stresses associated with the plastic distortion and skew part of the Burgers tensor. It is obtained that the defect energy through the strictly skew Burgers tensor is converted to the defect energy via the divergence of the plastic distortion. The presence of material length scales in the obtained flow rule indicates that it is possible to appre- hend size effects associated with the skew part of the Burgers tensor during the inhomogeneous plastic flow of solid material. Finally and amongst other things, it is shown that the dependency of the microscopic stress vector on the divergence of plastic distortion rate leads to weakening and strengthening effects in the flow rule.

In this paper the complete classification of left invariant metrics of arbitrary signature on solvable Lie groups is given. By identifying the Lie algebra with the algebra of left invariant vector fields on the corresponding Lie group ??, the inner product ??,?? on g = Lie G extends uniquely to a left invariant metric ?? on the Lie group. Therefore, the classification problem is reduced to the problem of classification of pairs (g, ??,??) known as the metric Lie algebras. Although two metric algebras may be isometric even if the corresponding Lie algebras are non-isomorphic, this paper will show that in the 4-dimensional solvable case isometric means isomorphic. Finally, the curvature properties of the obtained metric algebras are considered and, as a corollary, the classification of flat, locally symmetric, Ricciflat, Ricci-parallel and Einstein metrics is also given.

. The translational-rotational motion of a triaxial body with constant dynamic shape and variable size and mass in a non-stationary Newtonian central gravitational field is investigated. Differential equations of motion of the triaxial body in the relative coordinate system with the origin at the center of a non-stationary spherical body are obtained. The axes of the Cartesian coordinate system fixed to the non-stationary triaxial body are coincident with its principal axes and their relative orientation is assumed to remain unchanged in the course of evolution. An analytical expression for the force function of the Newtonian interaction of the triaxial body of variable mass and size with a spherical body of variable size and mass is obtained. Differential equations of translational-rotational motion of the non-stationary triaxial body are derived in Jacobi osculating variables and are studied with the perturba- tion theory methods. The perturbing function is expanded in power series in terms of the Delaunay–Andoyer elements up to the second harmonic element inclusive. The evolution equations of the translational-rotational motion of the non-stationary triaxial body are obtained in the osculating elements of Delaunay–Andoyer.

This paper considers the problem of modal analysis and finding the closed-form solution to free vibrations of planar serial frame structures composed of Euler?Bernoulli beams of variable cross-sectional geometric characteristics in the case of axially functionally graded materials. Each of these beams is performing coupled axial and bending vibrations, where coupling occurs due to the boundary conditions at their joints. The numerical procedure for solving the system of partial differential equations, after the separation of variables, is reduced to solving the two-point boundary value problem of ordinary linear differential equations with nonlinear coefficients and linear boundary conditions. In this case, it is possible to transfer the boundary conditions and reduce the problem to the Cauchy initial value problem. Also, it is possible to analyze the influence of different parameters on the structure dynamic behavior. The method is applicable in the case of different boundary conditions at the right and left ends of such structures, as illustrated by an appropriate numerical example.

A simple procedure is presented for the study of the conservation of energy equation with dissipation in continuum mechanics in 1D. This procedure is used to transform this nonlinear evolution-diffusion equation into a hyperbolic PDE; specifically, a second-order quasi-linear wave equation. An immediate implication of this procedure is the formation of a least action principle for the balance of energy with dissipation. The corresponding action functional enables us to establish a complete analytic mechanics for thermomechanical systems: a Lagrangian?Hamiltonian theory, integrals of motion, bracket formalism, and Noether?s theorem. Furthermore, we apply our procedure iteratively and produce an infinite sequence of interlocked variational principles, a variational hierarchy, where at each level or iteration the full implication of the least action principle can be shown again.

Using recent results from Garc?a-Naranjo [21] and Garc?a-Naranjo and Marrero [22], we show that the reduced equations of motion possess an invariant measure and may be represented in Hamiltonian form by Chaplygin?s reducing multiplier method. We also prove a general result on the existence of first integrals for certain Hamiltonisable Chaplygin systems with internal symmetries that is used to determine conserved quantities of the problem.
