This paper presents the time history response of a sandwich beam with a porous core subjected to two moving harmonic loads with opposite directions. In the modelling, the beam is combined of two isotropic face sheets and a porous core with symmetric porosity distribution. The quasi-3D shear deformation beam theory in conjunction with Hamilton’s variational principle is utilized to set up the governing equations of motion. The Navier solution is used to obtain the displacement field. | Vietnam Journal of Mechanics Vol. 46 No. 1 2024 pp. 44 57 DOI https 0866-7136 20580 DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF SANDWICH BEAM WITH POROUS CORE EXCITED BY TWO HARMONIC LOADS TRAVELLING IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS Tran Quang Hung1 Do Minh Duc 1 Tran Minh Tu2 1 The University of Da Nang - University of Science and Technology Da Nang Vietnam 2 Hanoi University of Civil Engineering Hanoi Vietnam E-mail ducdhbk@ Received 23 January 2024 Revised 02 March 2024 Accepted 12 March 2024 Published online 31 March 2024 Abstract. This paper presents the time history response of a sandwich beam with a porous core subjected to two moving harmonic loads with opposite directions. In the modelling the beam is combined of two isotropic face sheets and a porous core with symmetric poros- ity distribution. The quasi-3D shear deformation beam theory in conjunction with Hamil- ton s variational principle is utilized to set up the governing equations of motion. The Navier solution is used to obtain the displacement field. The accuracy of the study is val- idated by comparing with existing results in the literature for specific cases. Effects of the velocity and excitation frequency of the moving loads on the deflection-time history are investigated and discussed. Numerical results reveal that in the case of the double- moving harmonic loads in the antiphase the resonance phenomenon cannot occur when the excitation frequency approaches the natural frequency of the beam.

INTRODUCTION Lightweight sandwich structures with a porous core offer unique potential for var- ious applications in space aerospace automotive defense and civil engineering 1 . In these structures the porous core plays a prime key since it has many advantages such as high energy absorption ability high resistance to impact high strength- and stiffness- to-weight ratios 2 3 . Consequently this type of structure has gained .
