【 摘 要 】

Non-integer derivatives are frequently used to describe the constitutive behavior of viscoelastic materials. The dynamic analysis of a simply supported viscoelastic beam for a fractional Zener model is performed with the help of a modified variational iteration method. The structure is subjected to two loading scenarios: a uniformly distributed transverse load and a periodic concentrated force at the center of the beam. Using the properties of convolution product in Banach spaces L-p(R-n) and the fixed point theory, the stability temporal intervals of a nonlinear operator for a given fractional order v are determined. The graphical representations present in the numerical examples show how the existence of fractional derivative in the selected rheological model influences the dynamic response of the structure compared to the classical Zener model. The results of this study prove that the presented algorithm is an efficient tool for solving the fractional integro-differential equations. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
