in this paper, asymmetric buckling analysis of functionally graded (fg) circular plates with temperature dependent property that subjected to the uniform radial compression and thermal loading is investigated. this plate is on an elastic medium that simulated by winkler and pasternak foundation. mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary nonlinearly by temperature change. the equili...

The paper studies the possibility of propagation of torsional surface waves in an elastic layer with void pores over an elastic medium with void pores using the mechanics of the medium as derived by Cowin and Nunziato. The velocity equation has been derived and the results have been discussed. The study reveals that there may be more than one torsional surface wave fronts and one Love wave fron...

In current structural design specifications, such as EN 1993-1-1 for steel and 1993-1-4 stainless steel, the stability of members is typically assessed through use buckling curves, which consider influence initial geometric imperfections residual stresses. An alternative, more direct, approach to perform either an elastic or inelastic second-order analysis member structure with imperfections. F...
