Meshless methods are a relatively modern approach that has garnered significant interest in analyzing and investigating complex structural problems thanks to distinctive features such as high accuracy, flexibility, rapid calculation speed, and cost–effectiveness. In the present study, the element-free Galerkin method is employed as a meshless approach, wherein a set of arbitrary nodes is distributed across the problem’s geometry, including its boundaries, to define the problem domain. The Moving Least Squares approximation is also utilized to formulate the shape functions. Given the intricate geometry of the honeycomb core within sandwich panels, the study employs the generalized method to derive the effective mechanical properties of the honeycomb core. Furthermore, to acquire displacement fields and establish relationships for the problem, the classic plate theory and the first-order shear deformation theory are independently applied. These relationships are then formulated using the Galerkin meshless method. Finally, the obtained parameters are evaluated, and the validity of these relationships is confirmed by comparing the results of this study with those presented in existing articles. The outlined procedure has been systematically simulated through a step-by-step MATLAB program. Subsequently, the impact of different boundary conditions, individual layer thicknesses, dimension ratios, and core wall spacing on the panel’s displacement, free-vibration, and buckling behaviors is thoroughly investigated. The obtained results substantiate the efficacy of the utilized methodology, demonstrating a favorable combination of accuracy and convergence rate.

Offshore Triceratops are classified as form-dominant structures possessing the novelty of counteracting the lateral loads with material strength and geometric form. The deck is supported by the buoyant legs, which are positioned on the seabed using taut-moored tethers. Ball joints connect the legs with the deck and help partially isolate the deck to remain horizontal under waves and wind. While offshore structures commonly have tubular legs, the current study investigates Triceratops with elliptical legs under the postulated failure of tethers. Detailed dynamic analysis under postulated failure conditions is carried out using ANSYS AQWA, while the LIBRIUM analysis is used to obtain the equilibrium position of the platform under intact and postulated failure conditions. Results show that under postulated failure conditions, the peaks of the power spectral density function of the pitch response are seen closer to its natural frequency and the input wave frequency. Ball joints restrain this rotation from transferring to the deck, conforming to one of the advantages of its existence. The fatigue life of tethers calculated for different load cases under intact and postulated failure conditions helps understand the stability conditions of the platform.

The present study examines a microplate with a porous structure and two nanocomposite piezoelectric layers. All the layers’ properties are graded functionally, bonded to each other, and supported by an elastic foundation that can withstand both normal and shear loads. Additionally, carbon nanotubes are used to increase the electro-mechanical performance of the piezoelectric patches, which are exposed to an externally applied electric voltage. Using a higher-order trigonometric shear deformation theory and von Karman’s assumptions, the kinematic relations are demonstrated. The governing motion equations are derived using Hamilton’s principle and variational technique, and the modified couple stress theory is employed to take the scale effect into account. An analytical method based on Fourier series functions is used to solve the differential motion equations, and the impact of diverse factors such as porosity percentage, pore distribution patterns, carbon nanotubes distribution patterns, and other key parameters on the normalized frequencies of the model is analyzed after verifying the accuracy of the results. The findings of this research may aid in the development and production of smart structures and devices with increased efficiency.

In this paper, the dynamic response of an infinite Euler beam that was mounted on a fractional-order Pasternak viscoelastic foundation subjected to a moving point load was investigated. An analytical solution to the problem was derived using Fourier and Laplace transforms. Numerical results obtained by numerical Laplace inversion were analyzed to explore the impact of various parameters on the system’s response. The findings indicated that increasing system damping led to a decrease in maximum deflection and a more visible deformation hysteresis with an increase in fractional derivative orders. Additionally, all parameters of the foundation and shear layer were observed to have a significant effect on the deflection. The study confirmed that the fractional-order model predicted damping and dynamic deflection more accurately than the conventional integer-order foundation model. The research contributed to the understanding of the behavior of Euler beams mounted on viscoelastic foundations and provided valuable insights into the design of such systems.
