In this paper, the vibration behavior features are extracted from the combination between Wavelet Transform (WT), and Finite Strip Transition Matrix (FSTM) of skew composite plates (SCPs), with variable thickness, and intermediate elastic support. Although, the results of this technique and based on the previous work done by the authors, that show the method can reflect the vibration behavior of the composite plates. Due to the method's difficulty in terms of, a lot of calculations with a large number of iterations these results may not be good choices for quick and accurate vibration behavior extracting. Thus, the new deep neural network (NN) is designed to learn and test these results carrying out by extracting vibration behavior features that reflect the important and essential information about the mode shapes in SCP. The results give high indications about the proposed technique of deep learning is a promising method, particularly when the type structures are complicated and the ambient environment is variable.

1. Introduction
The importance of to use of composite materials in many fields of technology, such as aerospace industries, marine engineering, and civil engineering is due to special features, e.g. high strength/weight ratio and corrosion resistance property, particularly under the effects of the harsh environment. Although the structures are made of these types of materials have some drawback are subject to matrix cracks, fiber breakage, and delamination. These invisible faults can lead to catastrophic structural failures [1-4].
Other major modes of failure of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) have a temperature, bending, tensile, stress, impact failure, and failure of the installation, etc. These types of failures are complicated and are not easy to assets, mostly when subjected to associate effects of multiple factors [5-7].
The user of an active system of structural health monitoring (SHM) to observe the safety and potential damage detection in composite plates are essential and most seriously. The function of SHM is consists of three main sub-functions, including system identification, features extraction for algorithms for detection and prediction, and reliability and risk evaluation [8-19].
The vibration behavior of composite structures is the traditional method for the intelligent detecting the defects in the composite. The mode shapes of the structure are one of the essential tools in Structural health monitoring (SHM) in the last decades, where, extracted the vibration response of composite structure for each damage type and position and analysis based on the variance in vibration parameters. In recent years, different techniques to extract the natural frequencies of composite plates have become a field of great interest in the scientific society [20-34].
To find the mode shapes for different boundary conditions with IES, numerical methods or experimental methods must be used. Some researchers have been interested in the vibration of multi-span plates using different approaches. In previous works, Altabey [35, 36] used the FSTM as one of the common use of semi-analytical approaches to extract vibration response of basalt FRP laminated variable thickness rectangular plates with IES, and he tried to improve the results accuracy and by the way, decrease the calculations efforts due to a large number of iterations by combined his method with artificial neural networks (ANNs) and response surface (RS) methods.
In the present research, the new deep NN is designed to predict the vibration behavior of SCPs with variable thickness and IES with a different elastic restraint coefficient () and four cases of boundary conditions (BCs) of plate edges, namely SSSS, CCCC, SSFF, and CCFF. The plate is a rectangular SCP with variable thickness function , the locations of the IES is at mid-line of the presented plate, and the plate was manufactured from basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) by using five symmetrically layers with the stacking angle [45°/–45°/45°/–45°/45°] as shown in Fig. 1. First, review the illustrated results of the utilized method by the combination of these WT and FSTM methods (WT-FSTM) to convergence the studies by checking the agreement with the results available in the literature. Second, the trained deep NN is used to predict the outcome of the extracted vibration behavior of SCPs from WT-FSTM at certain values of elastic restraint coefficients () for IES, and then it is subsequently used to predict the vibration behavior for different levels of elastic restraint coefficients () for IES. The results are predicted from the deep NN model are in very good agreement with the WT-FSTM results. Hence, the results give high indications about the proposed technique of deep learning is a promising method.

The normalized partial differential equation of vibration behavior for the plates system illustrated in Fig.1 under the assumption of the classical deformation theory in terms of the plate deflection using the non-Dimensional variables and related to the skew coordinate system defined by , , and , , and after some derivation, the governing equation can be written as follows:

Since the treatment of IES conditions are the main objective of this paper we presented it in more detail. The line of the IES, the displacement must vanish and the normal moment must be continuous, i.e.

3. Determination of vibration behavior using WT and FSTM
In This section, the mode shapes of the SCP will be extracted using a new method by combined between the WT and FSTM methods with an adjusting frequency parameter, in order to improve the estimated accuracy of extracting by optimized the WT entropy for adjusting frequency parameter.
3.1. Continuous wavelet transform (CWT)
Continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is a convolution process of the data sequence with a set of continuous scaled and translated versions of the mother wavelet (MW) . The translating process is a smoothing effect over the length of the data sequence to localize the wavelet in time domain , whereas the scaling process is compressing or stretching of analyzed wavelet which indicates various resolutions. The stretched wavelet is used to capture the slow changes; while the compressed wavelet is used to capture abrupt changes in the signal. The trade-off of enhancing resolution is between increased computational cost and memory by computing wavelet components and multiplying each component by the correctly dilated and translated wavelet, resulting in the constituent wavelet of the analyzed signal [37-45].
The is stretched or squeezed through varying its dilation parameter s and moved through its translation parameter (i.e. along the localized time index ):
Let be the system shape function response of FSTM, where denotes time. CWT of a function , where is the set of square-integrable functions is denoted as and defined as:
where the wavelet scale s and the period are used to adjust the frequency and time location. shows how closely correlated with . By inverse CWT, the signal can be regenerated as:
For a plate striped in the -direction by divided into discrete longitudinal strips spanning between supports as shown in Fig. 1, the free-response equation for one striped beam system may be assumed in the form:
The WT of Eq. (7) is:
The logarithm of Eq. (8) gives:
By using the straight line of the slope of the logarithm of WT modulus, we can be obtained the natural frequency of the system and it is given by:
The plot of is constant in the time domain and is equal to the natural frequency . The non-dimensional frequency parameter (NDFP) are addressed in the form:
4. Deep neural networks (NNs)
Recently, deep learning, which is a network with multiple hidden layers of neurons, has also been applied in solving and identifying the ordinary and partial differential equations [46, 47].
Deep neural networks (NNs) are one of the artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms used for solving advanced non-linear problems [48]. The networks are consist of computational nodes that connected together to create one individual network, each node is processing a calculation on input and sends the result to output connections, and maybe a node output is an input to one other node or more.
In this section, we use the outcome of the results in Section 3 of vibration behavior of SCP extracted by WT-FSTM at certain values of elastic restraint coefficients () to obtain the training data and to predict the vibration behavior for different levels of elastic restraint coefficients () not included in the results.
The proposed deep NN architecture connection is presented in Fig. 2. The steps of the NDFP prediction can be described through the following steps in Table 2.

Data collecting | Extract the training data from the WT-FSTM of the SCP at certain values of elastic restraint coefficients () |
Training model | Divide the extracting data into three groups of data, the first one will be used for training in MS-NN for mode shapes prediction of SCP, and the second group of a dataset will be used for training in W-NN for predicting deflection , this network without hidden layers |
Testing model | The last part of the data will use to test the trained model in the training model. If the model is well-trained, the predicted results by the W-NN and MS-NN will be convergence to the real value. The training performance of suggested Deep NN is presented in Fig. 3 |
Prediction response | The response MS-NN will be used to predict the under random deflection . W-NN will be used to predict the at any location coordinate along with the SCP including the IES location presented in Section 2 |
It is important for the NN designer to check his proposed deep NN performance is suitable or not from the formula of mean square error (MSE):
Therefore, only one global minimum for performance index based on the features of the input vectors, but the minimum local minimum of a function at finite input values, and it cannot be omitted when attaching deep NN. Therefore, we can judge on accuracy a local minimum, if it has a low closer range to global minimum and low MSE. Anyway, the designer must be selected as a suitable method to solve this problem in order to descent the local minimum with momentum. Momentum allows a network to respond not only to the local gradient but also to recent trends in the error surface. Without momentum, a network may get stuck in a shallow local minimum. Fig. 3 shows the performance curves of training with three groups for learning data.

5.1. Convergence study and accuracy
The importance for review of presented work results with the results available in the literature in order to validate the accuracy and reliability of the proposed technique. In this subsection, the WT-FSTM technique has been applied on a CCCC variable thickness SP with (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5) and (30°, 45°, 60°), and then the convergence between the results in Fig. 4 with the results from FSTM [35] will be done.
As shown in the Fig. 4, after convergence, we can see clearly generally, that the results of the presented method WT-FSTM in excellent agreement with the other accurate methods in references [23-26, 35]. On the other hand, we can see the effects of plate Skew angles (), tapered ratio () and aspect ratio ( on the NDFP () it has been increased with increasing of the , , and , in all methods WT-FSTM and the methods in the literature.
5.2. Proposed method (WT-FSTM) results
In the present study, the numerical computations using the WT-FSTM approach is applied to extract vibration behavior. Due to the method difficulty in terms of, a lot of calculations with a large number of iterations these results may not be good choices for quickly and accurate vibration behavior extracting, the new deep NN is designed to learn and test these results carrying out by extracting vibration behavior features that reflect the important and essential information about the mode shapes in SCP. The proposed method target achieved using only two different in computations of the NDFP , the first one is located at 50 the second is 750, respectively. The first six frequencies are presented in Table 3, the NDFP has been computed with different values of skew angle () at aspect ratio ( 0.5), and tapered ratio ( 0.5) to study the behavior of natural frequencies under a different skew angle for different four BCs namely SSSS, CCCC, SSFF, and CCFF.

5.4. Deep NN predicting results
In this subsection, the main target of design the deep NN of predicting the vibration behavior data of SCP under different elastic restraint coefficients () is achieved, chosen 7 different for different four BCs (SSSS, CCCC, SSFF, and CCFF). The deep NN predicted results of the first six frequencies of SCP with 0.5 and 0.5 are shows in Fig. 7.
Moreover, the influence of the IES on the vibration behavior of the SCPs with variable thickness is shown in Fig. 7. As shown in the Fig. 7 for all values of skew angle () and all types of BCs, the first six frequencies are increasing with increasing of the value of elastic restraint coefficient (). whereas the frequencies rapidly increase with for small values of elastic restraint coefficient (), and the influence of IES becomes negligible at high values. On the other hand for all values of skew angle (), the first six frequencies for fully clamped (CCCC) plate are the highest frequencies, and the semi-simply supported (SSFF) plate is the lowest one, while, the other two boundaries (SSSS and CCFF) were rested between them. also, we can see the effects of plate skew angles () on the NDFP () it has been increased with increasing of the. skew angles.

First, To investigate from accuracy and reliability of the proposed technique, the convergence between the proposed study results with the results available in the literature has been checked, thus validating the accuracy and reliability of the proposed technique. Then, due to the proposed method's difficulty in terms of, a lot of calculations with a large number of iterations, these results may not be good choices for quick and accurate vibration behavior extracting.
