Abstract

In this study, dynamic characteristics of a composite beam with uncertain design parameters are analyzed. Uncertain-but-bounded parameters change only within certain specified limits. This study uses interval analysis to investigate a composite beam with viscoelastic layers whose behavior is described using the fractional Zener model. In general, parameters describing both elastic and viscoelastic layers can be uncertain. Several methods have been studied to determine the lower and upper bounds of the dynamic characteristics of a structure. Among them, the vertex method is a comparative method in which the lower and upper bounds of the dynamic characteristics are approximated using the first- and second-order Taylor series expansion. An algorithm to determine the critical combination of uncertain design parameters has also been described. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented methods and the possibility of applying them to the analysis of systems with numerous uncertain parameters and high uncertainties.
