This paper investigates the nonlinear forced dynamics of an axially moving Timoshenko beam. Taking into account rotary inertia and shear deformation, the equations of motion are obtained through use of constitutive relations and Hamilton's principle. The two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations are discretized into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations via Galerkin's scheme. The set is solved by means of the pseudo-arclength continuation technique and direct time integration. Specifically, the frequency-response curves of the system in the subcritical regime are obtained via the pseudo-arclength continuation technique; the bifurcation diagrams of Poincar, maps are obtained by means of direct time integration of the discretized equations. The resonant response is examined, for the cases when the system possesses a three-to-one internal resonance and when not. Results are shown through time traces, phase-plane portraits, and fast Fourier transforms (FFTs). The results indicate that the system displays a wide variety of rich dynamics.
