Abstract

For the first time, the influence of random parametric errors (RPEs) on the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a laminated composite cantilever beam (LCCB) is studied. A nonlinear dynamic model for the LCCB is first established based on Hamilton’s principle. In a numerical simulation, four different cases are presented to analyze the dynamic behavior of the studied LCCB. This study reveals that varying RPE levels cause significant changes in the dynamic response of the LCCB. The results indicate that RPE not only induces a transition from a periodic to a chaotic behavior but may also alter the maximum amplitude of chaotic vibrations, providing a critical theoretical basis for incorporating uncertainty factors in engineering design.
