abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, the vibration characteristics of beams with arbitrarily and continuously varying thickness and resting on Pasternak elastic foundations were analytically studied based on the elasticity theory directly. The general expression of stress function, which exactly satisfies the governing differential equations and the boundary conditions, was derived. The frequency equation governing the free vibration of varying-thickness beams resting on a Pasternak elastic foundation can be obtained by using the Fourier series expansion of the boundary conditions on the upper and lower surfaces of the beam. Convergence and comparison studies were conducted to demonstrate the high accuracy and efficiency of the present method. Application of the proposed analytical method to some typical beams with different geometry, Poisson&#39;s ratio, elastic coefficients of foundation were conducted further, and some new results are reported which may be used as an alternative of benchmark or standard solutions for numerical or other approximate results.</p>},
