Comparative Analysis of Free Optical Vibration of Lamination Composite Optical Beams Using the Boubaker Polynomials Expansion Scheme and the Differential Quadrature Method

Abstract

The effects of stacking sequences of composite laminated optical beams on free vibration frequencies are investigated using two methods: the Boubaker Polynomials Expansion Scheme (pbes) and the Differential Quadrature Method (dqm). In the last decades, these two techniques have been separately performed for obtaining accurate numerical solutions to several initial boundary value problems (Vo et al. 2010, Li et al. 2008, Chen 2003, Hu et al. 2008, Karami et al. 2003, Malekzadeh et al. 2004, Khare et al. 2004, Della and Shu 2005, Ramtekkar et al. 2002, Adam 2003). Conjointly yielded results are compared and discussed.
