Abstract
A Dynamic Finite Element (DFE) method for coupled axial–flexural undamped free vibration analysis of functionally graded beams is developed and subsequently used to investigate the system’s natural frequencies and mode shapes. The formulation is based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and material grading is assumed to follow a power law variation through the thickness direction. Using the closed-form solutions to the uncoupled segments of the system’s governing differential equations as the basis functions of approximation space, the dynamic, frequency-dependent, trigonometric interpolation functions are developed. The interpolation functions are used with the weighted residual method to develop the DFE of the system. The resulting nonlinear eigenvalue problem is then solved to determine the coupled natural frequencies. Example elements using DFE, Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Dynamic Stiffness Method (DSM) are implemented in MATLAB for testing, verification, and validation. Good agreement was observed and the DFE formulation exhibited superior convergence performance compared to the FEM.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
