Abstract
A viscoelastic axially functionally graded (FG) imperfect microbeam is considered and the complex nonlinear dynamics is analysed for the first time. The distribution of the material properties from beam's left end to the right one is of an exponential form. The small nature of the system is incorporated using the couple stress theory (CST) in a modified form. The viscosity between microbeam's infinitesimal elements is incorporated through the Kelvin-Voigt scheme. The elastic part of the energy is formulated via the elastic component of the stress and its couple; the viscous parts are incorporated via a negative work. The energy of kinetic type is also formulated. Without ignoring the axial displacement/inertia, Hamilton's principle of energy is used to formulate the viscoelastic mechanical model of the microsystem. A high-dimensional truncation/discretisation is conducted and numerical simulations are performed based upon it. The complex nonlinear dynamics of the axially FG imperfect beam is analysed in the presence/absence of viscosity.
