Abstract

This paper studies the free vibration behavior of a sandwich beam resting on Winkler elastic foundation. The sandwich beam is composed of two FGM face layers and a functionally graded (FG) porous core. A common general form of different beam theories is proposed and the equations of motion are formulated using Hamilton's principle. The result of the general form is validated against those of a particular case and shows a good agreement. The effect of different parameters on the fundamental natural frequency of the sandwich beam is investigated.
