Free Vibration and Stability of Axially Functionally Graded Tapered Euler-Bernoulli Beams

Structural analysis of axially functionally graded tapered Euler-Bernoulli beams is studied using finite element method. A beam element is proposed which takes advantage of the shape functions of homogeneous uniform beam elements. The effects of varying cross-sectional dimensions and mechanical prop...
