Analysis of cylindrical bending thermoelastic deformations of functionally graded plates by a meshless local Petrov–Galerkin method
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze plane strain static thermoelastic deformations of a simply supported functionally graded (FG) plate by a meshless local Petrov–Galerkin (MLPG) method. Material moduli are assumed to vary only in the thickness direction. The plate material is made of two isotropic randomly distributed constituents and the macroscopic response is also modeled as isotropic. Displacements and stresses computed with the MLPG method are found to agree very well with those obtained from the analytical solution of the problem. The number of nodes required to obtain an accurate solution for a FG plate is considerably more than that needed for a homogeneous plate.

Three dimensional static and dynamic analysis of thick plates by the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method under different loading conditions
In this paper, three dimensional (3D) static and dynamic analysis of thick plates based on the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) is presented. Using the kinematics of a three-dimensional continuum, the local weak form of the equilibrium equations is derived. A weak formulation for the set of governing equations is transformed into local integral equations on local sub-domains by using a uni...

In this paper the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is implemented to study the buckling of isotropic cylindrical shells under axial load. Displacement field equations, based on Donnell and first order shear deformation theory, are taken into consideration. The set of governing equations of motion are numerically solved by the MLPG method in which according to a semi-inverse method, ...

We study transient thermoelastic deformations of a thick functionally graded plate with edges held at a uniform temperature and either simply supported or clamped. Either the temperature or the heat flux is prescribed on the top surface of the plate with the bottom surface of the plate kept at either a uniform temperature or thermally insulated. Stresses and deformations induced due to the simu...

Static deformations, and free and forced vibrations of a thick rectangular functionally graded elastic plate are analyzed by using a higherorder shear and normal deformable plate theory (HOSNDPT) and a meshless local Petrov–Galerkin (MLPG) method. All components of the stress tensor are computed from equations of the plate theory. The plate material, made of two isotropic constituents, is assum...

We use the global collocation method, the first and the third-order shear deformation plate theories, the Mori–Tanaka technique to homogenize material properties, and approximate the trial solution with multiquadric radial basis functions to analyze free vibrations of functionally graded plates. Frequencies computed by the present method are found to agree well with those from the analytical so...
