A New Quasi-3D Model for Functionally Graded Plates
Authors
Abstract:
This article investigates the static behavior of functionally graded plate under mechanical loads by using a new quasi 3D model. The theory is designated as fifth-order shear and normal deformation theory (FOSNDT). Properties of functionally graded material are graded across the transverse direction by using the rule of mixture i.e. power-law. The effect of thickness stretching is considered to develop the present theory. In this theory, axial and transverse displacement components respectively involve fifth-order and fourth-order shape functions to evaluate shear and normal strains. The theory involves nine unknowns. Zero transverse shear stress conditions are satisfied by employing constitutive relations. Analytical solutions are obtained by implementing the double Fourier series technique. The results predicted by the FOSNDT are compared with existing results. It is pointed out that the present theory is helpful for accurate structural analysis of isotropic and functionally graded plates compared to other plate models.

Equivalent layered models for functionally graded plates
Functionally graded plates whose material properties vary continuously through the thickness are modelled as exactly equivalent plates composed of up to four isotropic layers. Separate models are derived for analysis using classical plate theory, firstorder and higher-order shear deformation theory. For cases where Poisson’s ratio varies through the thickness, the integrations required to obtai...
full textA Quasi-3D Polynomial Shear and Normal Deformation Theory for Laminated Composite, Sandwich, and Functionally Graded Beams
Bending analyses of isotropic, functionally graded, laminated composite, and sandwich beams are carried out using a quasi-3D polynomial shear and normal deformation theory. The most important feature of the proposed theory is that it considers the effects of transverse shear and transverse normal deformations. It accounts for parabolic variations in the strain/stress produced by transverse shea...

This paper presents a probabilistic assessment on the free vibration analysis of functionally graded material plates, including layers with magneto-electro-elastic properties, using the 3D solution and surrogate models. The plate is located on an elastic foundation and the intra-layer slipping effect is also considered in the analysis by employing the generalized intra-layer spring model. Due t...

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...
