    Neste trabalho apresenta-se um modelo de elementos finitos baseado na teoria de deformação de corte de 3ª ordem, o qual é aplicado ao controlo activo de vibrações, incluindo o fenómeno de ressonância, em estruturas laminadas. Sensores e actuadores piezoeléctricos na forma de lâminas estão colocadas na superfície superior e inferior do laminado, permitindo assim um sistema de controlo, ligando os efeitos piézoeléctricos directo e converso, atrvés de um algoritmo baseado na realimentação com velocidade negativa. As estruturas são forçadas a vibrar num determinado modo, e a sua amplitude no tempo é calculada usando o método de Newmark. Apresenta-se uma aplicação ilustrativa

    In this paper is presented an higher-order model for static and free vibration analyses of magneto-electro-elastic plates, wich allows the analysis of thin and thick plates, which allows the analysis of thin and thick plates. The finite element model is a single layer triangular plate/shell element with 24 degrees of fredom for the generalized mechanical displacements. Two degrees on freedom are introduced per each element layer, one corresponding to the electrical potential and the other for magnetic potential. Solutions are obtained for different laminations of the magneto-electro-elastic plate, as well as for the purely elastic plate as a special case

    This paper deals with a third order shear deformation finite element model wich is applied on the active resonance control thin plate/shell laminated structures with integrated piezoelectric layers of patches, acting as sensors and actuators. The finite element model is a single layer tringular nonconforming plate/shell element with 24 degrees of freedom for he generalized displacements, and one electrical potential degree of freedom for each piezoelectric element layer, wich are surface bonded on the laminated.

    In the recent years the study of smart structures has attracted significant researchers, due to their potential benefits in a wide range of applications, such as shape control, vibration suppression, noise attenuation and damage detection. The applications in aerospace industry are of great relevance, such as in active control of airplane wings, helicopter blade rotor, space antenna. The use of smart materials, such as piezoelectric materials, in the form of layers or patches embedded and/or surface bonded on laminated composite structures, can provide structures that combine the superior mechanical properties of composite materials and the capability to sense and adapt their static and dynamic response, becoming adaptive structures. The piezoelectric materials have the property of generate electrical charge under mechanical load or deformation, and the reverse, applying an electrical field to the material results in mechanical strain or stresses

    Functionally graded composite materials can provide continuously varying properties, which distribution can vary according to a specific location within the composite. More frequently, functionally graded materials consider a through thickness variation law, which can be more or less smoother, possessing however an important characteristic which is the continuous properties variation profiles, which eliminate the abrupt stresses discontinuities found on laminated composites. This study aims to analyze the transient dynamic behavior of sandwich structures, having a metallic core and functionally graded outer layers. To this purpose, the properties of the particulate composite metal-ceramic outer layers, are estimated using Mod-Tanaka scheme and the dynamic analyses considers first order and higher order shear deformation theories implemented though kriging finite element method. The transient dynamic response of these structures is carried out through Bossak-Newmark method. The illustrative cases presented in this work, consider the influence of the shape functions interpolation domain, the properties through-thickness distribution, the influence of considering different materials, aspect ratios and boundary conditions.
