A general numerical analysis theory capable of describing the behaviour of a non-uniform beam resting on variable one parameter (Winkler) foundation under a uniform partially distributed moving load is developed. The versatile numerical solution technique employed is based on the finite element and Newmark integration methods. The analysis is carried out in order to evaluate the effect of the following parameters (i) the speed of the moving load (ii) the span length of the beam (iii) two types of vibrating configurations of the beam (iv) the load’s length and (v) the elastic foundation modulus, on the dynamic behaviour of the non-uniform beam resting on the variable one-parameter foundation. Numerical examples which showed that the above parameters have significant effects on the dynamic behaviour of the moving load problem are presented.
This work investigates a three-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow with heat and mass transfer over a porous stretching sheet. Firstly, partial differential equations are transformed into coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations through a similarity variables transformation and solved by Galerkin Finite Element Methods (FEM). The effects of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and chemical reaction on the fluid flow are considered. The behaviour and properties of pertinent flow parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented and discussed graphically. The effects of the friction coefficient parameter, Nusselt and Sherhood numbers are also shown and considered using tables. The work is in good agreement in comparison with the recent work in literature.
