Introduction
Functionally graded materials (FGM) are made of two or more different materials, where the common type is the combination of ceramic and metal with the changing law of material properties in one direction. Due to the ceramic component in the composition, the structures made of FG materials have good heat resistance, and they are usually designed for use in high-temperature environments. erefore, the research on the mechanical behavior of structures made of these materials, including FGM beams, has interested scientists worldwide [1][2][3][4][5]. Besides, in engineering practice, some parts of turbines, aircraft propellers, and so on can be seen as beam structures with rotational movements. e following publications related to these structures can be counted. Gunjal and Dixit [6] studied the minimum of the vibrations of rotating beams through the shape optimization of these beams, in which the finite element method was used to model the rotating beam and sequential quadratic programming was used for the optimization process. Pradhan and Murmu [7] used Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory and a single nonlocal beam model to investigate the mechanical behavior of a rotating nanobeam, where the differential quadrature method was adopted in this work. Li et al. [8] examined the free vibration response of a rotating functionally graded material (FGM) beam using a dynamic model; the results took the effects of the bending and stretching phenomena into account. Amir et al. [9] explored the lead-lag vibration problem of rotating microbeams based on Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam theories and the finite element method. Jung-Woo and Jung-Youn [10] studied the effects of cracks on the natural frequencies of a rotating Bernoulli-Euler beam by employing a new numerical approach, where these effects could be computed simply using the transfer matrix method. Das [11] employed the Ritz method to calculate the in-plane and out-of-plane mechanical behavior of the rotating FGM beam, which was based on the Timoshenko beam theory and the Coriolis acceleration. Xu et al. [12] investigated the dynamic model and vibration suppression of a rotating cantilever beam under magnetic excitations based on the Hamilton principle and Galerkin method. e free vibration response analysis of the rotating rod based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity was carried out by Alireza and Cai [13]. Liang et al. [14] studied the vibration control of a rotating piezoelectric FGM beam in thermal environments by using the high-order coupling modeling theory. Dejin et al. [15] introduced a combination of the Timoshenko beam and remodified couple stress theories to capture the free vibration response of rotating microbeams, in which the beams were made from multilayered composite components with geometric imperfections. Euler-Bernoulli's beam, Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theories, and Galerkin method were employed by Atanasov and Stojanovic [16] to investigate the free vibration of rotating nanobeams, in which a wide range of parameter studies was carried out, especially the speed of rotation around one fixed axis.
In addition, for structures made of pore-defect materials, structures resting on elastic foundations and structures taking into account the effect of temperature have been also investigated by scientists worldwide. Jalaei and Civalek [17] used Navier's solution and Bolotin's approach to study the dynamic instability of viscoelastic porous functionally graded nanobeam embedded on visco-Pasternak medium. Demir and Civalek [18] investigated the bending of nano/ microbeams under the concentrated and distributed loads using Euler-Bernoulli beam theory via the enhanced Eringen differential model. Akgoz and Civalek [19] introduced the exact solution for the static bending and buckling problems of simply supported microbeams embedded in an elastic medium. e exact solution was also presented by Hanten et al. [20] to analyze the free vibration analysis of beams made of fibre-metal laminated beams. e research on the mechanical behavior of plate and beam structures resting on different elastic foundations has been studied by scientists, typically in works [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. In works [27,29,[31][32][33][34][35], the authors explored the mechanical response of beams and plates taking into account the effect of temperature with numerous different theories.
Based on the review above, it can be seen that there are not any publications on free vibration responses of rotating FGM beams resting on elastic foundations in thermal environments, in which geometrical imperfections are taken into account. Hence, this paper is about to explore the free vibration behavior of these structures by using the combination of the finite element method and the new type of hyperbolic sine functions of shear deformation theory. e proposed theory is simple and easy to establish the stress and strain relations, which does not need to add any shear correction factors, while the mechanical phenomena are still desired exactly. e rest of this paper is structured as follows. Finite element formulations of the rotating FGM beam in a thermal environment are presented in Section 2, where geometrical imperfections and temperature effects are considered. Section 3 conducts verification examples to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed theory and mechanical models. Numerical data and discussions are located in Section 4. Section 5 concludes some remarkable points of this work.

Finite Element Model of the Rotating FGM Beam in a Thermal Environment
Consider a functionally graded material (FGM) beam rotating around one fixed axis with the speed χ. One side of the beam is at distance r from the fixed axis Δ. e beam is resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation k w and k s , as shown in Figure 1. e beam has dimensions such as the length L, width b, and thickness h, and an initial geometric imperfection in the z-direction is w im (x). e beam structure is made from ceramic (denoted by c) and metal (denoted by m), in which volume proportions (V c and V m ) are varied according to the thickness direction based on the following power law function [1,[36][37][38][39]: where z is the thickness coordinate variable with −h/2 ≤ z ≤ h/2 and n is the volume fraction index and its variation. From equation (1), one can see that, at the top surface of the beam (z � h/2), it has V c � 1 and V m � 0, i.e., full ceramic at this surface, and at the bottom surface of the beam is completely metallic, and two ceramic and metal materials change continuously from one surface to the other surface of the beam in the thickness direction. Young's modulus E, density ρ, Poisson's ratio ], and coefficient of the thermal expansion α are functions of the power law distribution as [1]: e beam is assumed to be placed in a thermal environment; as a result, the material properties are varied by the temperature as follows [40]: where T � T 0 + ΔT, ΔT is the temperature increment, T 0 � 300K is the room temperature (this temperature also does not affect the stress of the material), and P 0 , P −1 , P 1 , P 2 , and P 3 are constants depending on different materials.
To represent properly the mechanical behaviors of FGM beams, this work uses a new shear deformation theory-type hyperbolic sine functions; thus, the displacements u and w in the x-and z-directions at any point with the coordinate (x, z) are expressed as follows [41,42]: . e longitudinal and shear strains of the beam are defined as follows: in which the strain components have the following expressions: (5b) e normal stresses relating to the mechanical strain σ xx , the thermal strain σ T , and the shear stress τ xz have the following expressions: where the strain relating to the temperature is ε T � α(z)(T − T 0 ). e energy of the FGM beam is calculated as

Mathematical Problems in Engineering
e energy of the elastic foundation is defined as where k w and k s are the two coefficients of the elastic foundation. e FGM beam rotates around one axis Δ with the rotational speed χ; therefore, the potential energy of this structure generated by the rotational movement is defined as follows [15,43]: with the centrifugal force F χ is calculated as follows [15]: in which ρ(z) is the density of the material. e work done by temperature acting in the longitudinal direction of the FGM beam is defined as follows [43]: e kinetic energy of the beam is expressed as follows: To determine the equilibrium equation of the FGM beam, this work uses Hamilton's principle: In this paper, a two-node beam element is employed, where each node contains four degrees of freedom: where the displacement components at each point within the beam element are approximated through Lagrange and Hermite interpolation functions N i and H i : 15) or, in the matrix form as And, strain components are calculated according to the nodal displacement as follows: One can get the energy expression of the FGM beam element as follows:

Mathematical Problems in Engineering
Equation (18) can be rewritten in the short form as follows: e energy of the centrifugal inertia force and the elastic foundation is calculated as follows: e energy generated by the thermal strain is calculated as follows: where σ T is given in equation (6). e kinetic energy of the FGM beam element is determined as follows: in which M e � V ρ(z)(H T H)dV is the element mass matrix. By substituting equations (18)- (20) into (13), the equation to get the fundamental frequency as well as vibration mode shape of the rotating FGM beam is obtained as follows: Equation (23) proves that all components related to rotational speed, elastic foundation parameter, initial geometrical imperfection, and temperature are presented in the equation for determining the specific vibration response of the FGM beam, which is completely different from traditional beams, which make the computation more complicated in comparison with previous studies. It should also be noted that, in equation (23), the global stiffness matrix K � e (K E e + K F e + K R e − K Th e ), the global mass matrix M � e M e , and the global vector q � e q e depend on specific boundary conditions. Here is the deletion of rows and columns corresponding to zero degrees of freedom at the boundary nodes, which are described as follows: (i) Simply supported (represented by S): 6 Mathematical Problems in Engineering (ii) Clamped (represented by C): (iii) Free (represented by F): is work calculates for FGM beams with three boundary conditions.
(i) One side is clamped, and the other side is free: C-F (ii) Fully simply supported beam: S-S (iii) Fully clamped beam: C-C

Verification Study
e nondimensional frequency of the beam is defined by the following formula: Table 1 presents the results of this work and the analytical method [44], where this work carries out some different mesh sizes. It can be observed that, with the 10element mesh size, the accuracy is acceptable; therefore, this work will use this mesh for all following sections.
Example 2. Next, this problem carries the comparison of frequencies of the fully simply supported FGM beam with initial geometrical imperfection. e beam has the following parameter: L � 288.7 h, h � 0.02 m, b � 0.04 m, E � 971 GPa, and mass density ρ � 2300 kg/m 3 . e initial imperfection of the beam is w im (x) � J 0 sin(πx), where J 0 is the amplitude of imperfection. e first nondimensional frequency and the initial imperfection coefficient ς 0 are defined as follows: e first nondimensional frequencies of the S-S FGM beam with initial geometrical imperfection obtained from this work and the pseudo-arclength continuation technique [45] in the case of increasing gradually the value of ς 0 are plotted in Figure 2. It can be seen that they meet a very good agreement.
Example 3. Now, nondimensional frequencies of the rotating beam with the speed χ are compared. Consider an cantilever beam with the length L, thickness h � b � L/100, r � 0, E � 70 GPa, and mass density ρ � 2700 kg/m 3 . e nondimensional frequency is calculated as follows: Table 2 presents the first three nondimensional frequencies of the beam with different rotational speed ratios ϑ � L 2 χ ������� 12ρ/Eh 2 obtained from this work, exact solution [46], new dynamic modeling method (DMM) [47], and isogeometric analysis [15].  Table 3. e nondimensional frequency is calculated as ω ⌣ i � ω i L 2 ������� ρ c bh/E c I (with I � bh 3 /12). e results of this paper and the exact solutions [48] are shown in Table 4.

Numerical Results
is section is about to present the numerical explorations on free vibration analysis of rotating FGM beams in thermal environments, where the initial geometrical imperfection is considered. e beam is resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation. Temperature-dependent material properties are listed in Table 3, and Young's moduli of ceramic and metal changing by temperature are plotted in Figure 3. e imperfection of the beam is w 0 (x) � G 0 sin(πx), in which G 0 is the amplitude of the imperfection and the imperfection ratio is ς 0 � G 0 /L. e nondimensional frequency of the FGM beam and other parameters are normalized as follows:    Mathematical Problems in Engineering   Figure 6 shows the dependence of the first frequency of the FGM beam on the distance ratio r/L and the rotational speed. Figures 7 and 8 present the first frequency of the S-S beam on the distance ratio r/L and the rotational speed, and the first four frequencies of S-S and C-F beams depending on the rotational speed are presented in Figure 9. Based on these numerical results, some conclusions are drawn as follows: (i) Frequencies of the FGM beam increase when the value of the rotational speed increases. is can be explained that when the beam is rotating, the centrifugal force will appear; therefore, the stiffness of the structure will increase. Besides, when increasing the volume fraction index n, the proportion of metal increases, the beam becomes softer, so the frequency of the beam is reduced. (ii) With the increasing of the distance ratio r/L, the frequency of the beam is also enhanced, and this phenomenon presents more clearly when the rotational speed gets higher value. Figure 5 shows that ----Isogeometric [15] ---- Table 3: Temperature-dependent material properties [40].
0 when the beam rotates at a small speed, the difference of the first natural frequency with different values of distance r is not much; the greater the speed, the more this difference is. (iii) Both rotational speed and distance r affect the vibration mode shapes of the FGM beam, especially to the first frequency. From Figure 6, the readers can find that, as the distance r increases, the first vibration mode shape of the beam tends to deviate to the right due to the influence of the greater inertial force. is shows that the distance r and the rotational speed of the beam have a significant effect on the frequency as well as the vibration mode shape of the structure.

Influence of the Temperature.
In this section, the influence of the temperature on the free vibration response of the beam is evaluated. Consider a geometrically imperfect beam with geometrical parameters L/h � 20, imperfect parameter ς 0 � 0.001, K * w � 10, K * s � 1, distance ratio r/L � 0, and rotational speed η � 5 changing the temperature so that ΔT � 0 − 100 K, and the volume fraction index n � 0-10. e dependence of the first three dimensional frequencies of the cantilever FGM beam on the temperature and volume fraction index n is shown in Figure 10. e first three dimensional frequencies of C-F and S-S FGM beams on the temperature and rotational speed are presented in Figure 11. Some discussions of these numerical results are drawn as follows: (i) When increasing the temperature, frequencies of FGM beams decrease. is can be explained that Young's moduli of ceramic and metal decrease as the temperature increases; therefore, the structure becomes softer.
(ii) When the value of the rotational speed is small, the effect of the centrifugal force presents slightly; thus, the slope of the dependence curve of frequency on the temperature is higher. Besides, the higher the speed of the beam is, the more clearly is the frequency dependence on the temperature shown is.

Influence of the Imperfect Ratio.
Next, the influence of the imperfect ratio is investigated. Consider a geometrically imperfect beam with L/h � 20, K * w � 10, K * s � 1, distance ratio r/L � 2, rotational speed η � 10, temperature ΔT � 20 K, the initial imperfect parameter ς 0 changes in a range of 0 to 0.002, and the volume fraction index n � 0-10. Figure 12 plotted the first three vibration mode shapes of FGM beams on the initial imperfect parameter and volume fraction index. Figure 13 presents the dependence of the first three frequencies on the initial imperfect parameter, temperature, and rotational speed. One can see as follows: (i) When increasing the initial imperfect parameter ς 0 of the beam, frequencies increase; however, this change is presented very slightly (ii) For each value of the initial imperfect parameter ς 0 , the change of the frequency of the FGM beam is presented most when the volume fraction n gets the values in a range of 0 to 2

Influence of Elastic Foundation Parameters.
is last investigation is about to evaluate the effect of elastic foundation parameters on vibration responses of FGM beams. To see more of this influence, the two following parameters are changed as follows: K * w varies in a range of 0 to 20 and K * s gets the values from 0 to 2. e first     Tables 5 and 6, where these parameters are taken into calculations: L/h � 20, distance ratio r/L � 2, rotational speed η � 10, temperature ΔT � 20 K, and initial imperfect parameter ς 0 � 0.001. It can be observed that when increasing the elastic foundation parameters, the stiffness of the structure increases; as a result, nondimensional frequencies of FGM beams increase correspondingly. Similarly, one can see that when the volume fraction index n changes in a range of 0 to 2, the change of nondimensional frequencies is presented more sharply.
is changed is faded gradually when n gets the values from 2 to 10.     Figure 13: e first nondimensional frequency of the cantilever FGM beam on the initial imperfect parameter ς 0 and the temperature.

Conclusions
is paper uses a combination of the simple shear deformation theory (type hyperbolic sine functions) and the finite element method to establish the finite element formulations of the free vibration problem of rotating FGM beams resting on two-parameters' elastic foundations, in which the effects of the initial geometrical imperfection and temperature are taken into calculations. e numerical results of this work are truly novel explorations, which can be used in computational design and in practical engineering.
(i) When the speed of rotation of the FGM beam increases, the inertial force increases; therefore, the frequencies of the structure increase. e rotational speed has a significant influence on the vibration responses of the beam. In addition, the distance r from the top of the beam to the axis of rotation also has a significant influence on the natural frequency of the beam; the greater the distance, the greater the frequency of the beam. At the same time, the shape of the first natural frequency tends to move to the right as this distance increases. (ii) As the temperature increases, the mechanical properties of the material change and the elastic modulus decreases; as a result, the frequencies of the FGM beam also decrease. (iii) e nondimensional frequencies of FGM beams increase when the initial imperfect parameter increases slightly. Also, as the elastic foundation parameters increase, nondimensional frequencies of FGM beams enhance. e change of nondimensional frequencies is presented most when the volume fraction index n gets the values in a range of 0 to 2.
From the numerical results of this study, the design and use of a rotating beam structure performing in a temperature environment need to pay attention to many parameters, in which special attention should be paid to the rotation speed of the beam and the distance r from the top of the beam to the fixed axis.
