Nonlinear dynamical behaviors of an axially accelerating viscoelastic sandwich beam subjected to three-to-one internal resonance and parametric excitations resulting from simultaneous velocity and tension fluctuations are investigated. The direct method of multiple scales is adopted to obtain a set of first-order ordinary differential equations and associated boundary conditions. The frequency and amplitude response curves along with their stability and bifurcation are numerically studied. A great number of dynamic behaviors are presented in the form of phase portraits, time traces, Poincare sections, and FFT power spectra. Due to modal interaction, various periodic, quasiperiodic, and chaotic behaviors are displayed, depending on the initial conditions. The largest Lyapunov exponent is carried out to determine the midly chaotic response by the convergent form of exponents. Numerical results show various oscillatory behaviors indicating the influence of internal resonance and coupled effects of fluctuating axial velocity and tension.
