This paper investigates damping ratio in micro-beam resonators based on magneto-thermo-elasticity. A unique aspect of the present study is the effect of permanent magnetic field on the stiffness and thermo-elastic damping of the micro resonators. In our modeling the theory of thermo-elasticity with interacting of an externally applied permanent magnetic field is taken into account. Combined theoretical and numerical studies investigate the permanent magnetic field effect on the damping ratio in clamped-clamped and cantilever micro-beams. Furthermore, the influence of the magnetic field intensity on the frequency of the micro-beams with thermo-elastic damping effect is evaluated. Such evaluations are used to determine the influence of magnetic field on the vibration amplitude of the resonators. The meaningful conclusion is that the magnetic field increases the equivalent stiffness and thermo-elastic damping and consequently the energy consumption of the resonators. تفاصيل المقالة

In this paper, the stability of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (FG-MEE) micro-beam under actuation of electrostatic pressure is studied. For this purpose Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and constitutive relations for magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials have been used. We have supposed that material properties vary exponentially along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. Governing motion equations of the micro-beam are derived by using of Hamilton’s principle. Maxwell’s equation and magneto-electric boundary conditions are used in order to determine and formulate magnetic and electric potentials distribution along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. By using of magneto-electric potential distribution, effective axial forces induced by external magneto-electric potential are formulated and then the governing motion equation of the micro-beam under electrostatic actuation is obtained. A Galerkin-based step by step linearization method (SSLM) has been used for static analysis. For dynamic analysis, the Galerkin reduced order model has been used. Static pull-in instability for 5 types of MEE micro-beam with different gradient indexes has been investigated. Furthermore, the effects of external magneto-electric potential on the static and dynamic stability of the micro-beam are discussed in detail. تفاصيل المقالة
