This paper presents thermal buckling analysis of rectangular functionally graded plates (FG plates) with an eccentrically located elliptic cutout. The plate governing equations derived by the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) and finite element formulation is developed to analyze the plate behavior subjected to a uniform temperature rise across plate thickness. It is assumed that the ...

With the development of advanced manufacturing technologies, importance functionally graded materials is growing as they are advantageous over widely used traditional composites. In this paper, we present a novel peridynamic model for higher order functional plates various thicknesses. Moreover, formulation eliminates usage shear correction factors. Euler–Lagrange equations and Taylor’s expansi...

In this paper dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded panel is studied using a semi-analytical numerical method entitled the state-space based differential method (SSDQM) and comparative behavior modeling by artificial neural network (ANN) for different parameters. A semi-analytical approach which makes use the three-dimensional elastic theory and assuming the material propert...

in this article, thermal stability of beams made of functionally graded material (fgm) is considered. the derivations of equations are based on the one-dimensional theory of elasticity. the material properties vary continuously through the thickness direction. tanigawa's model for the variation of poisson's ratio, the modulus of shear stress, and the coefcient of thermal expansion is...
