Abstract
This paper investigates the effective elastic constants of the perforated fibre-reinforcement damping membrane, taking into account the variations in perforation array and ply orientation angle using the homogenization method and the off-axis stress-strain relation. The equations for the free vibration of the composite beam with multi-layer perforated fibre-reinforcement damping membranes are derived using the first-order shear deformation theory and the Hamilton principle. These equations are then solved using the Navier method. The novelty of this paper lies in the achievement of an effective elastic constants model and vibration analysis for the multi-layer composite beam under simply supported boundary conditions. The calculated results are then compared with experimental values and finite element results to validate the theoretical model and method. Furthermore, the paper explores the graphical variation of mechanical performance with system parameters, providing a theoretical foundation for future researchers in the composite field.
