Dynamic Instability of MRE Embedded Soft Cored Sandwich Beam with Non-Conductive Skins by S.K. Dwivedy, M. Srinivas

“…In this work the governing temporal equations of motions with complex coefficients have been derived for a three-layered unsymmetric sandwich beam with nonconductive skins and magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) embedded soft-viscoelastic core subjected to periodic axial loads using higher order sandwich beam theory, extended Hamilton's principle, and generalized Galerkin's method. The parametric instability regions for principal parametric and combination parametric resonances for first three modes have been determined for various end conditions with different shear modulus, core loss factors, number of MRE patches and different skin thickness. …”
