On the Maximum of the First Resonance Frequency for Inhomogeneous Elastic Bodies

The paper considers a non-classical optimization problem associated with the development of the production of new functionally graded materials. It is proposed to optimize the first natural frequency of oscillations by choosing the law of change in elastic moduli, and not the shape, as is done in most works devoted to optimization. This formulation of the problem becomes practically justified with the development of 3D printing and the production of FGM ceramics with specified properties. As an example, the problems of oscillations of a FGM rod and a FGM beam with spring boundary conditions at one of the ends are considered.
