In this study, based on nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen, the first order shear deformation theory of plates (FSDT) is reformulated for vibration of nano-plates considering the initial geometric imperfection. The dynamic analog of the von Kármán nonlinear strain-displacement relations is used to derive equations of motion for the nano-plate. When dealing with nonlineariti...

A three-dimensional exact solution is presented for free and forced vibrations of simply supported functionally graded rectangular plates. Suitable displacement functions that identically satisfy boundary conditions are used to reduce equations governing steady state vibrations of a plate to a set of coupled ordinary differential equations, which are then solved by employing the power series me...

In this paper, the thermal buckling analysis of a circular plate made of FGM materials with actuator/actuator piezoelectric layers based on neutral plane, classical plate theory and first order shear deformation plate theory is investigated. Reddy's model is assumed for material properties of FGM plate. Plate under the thermal loading, nonlinear temperature rise through the thickness and clampe...

In this paper, the transient response of a viscoelastic annular plate which has time-dependent properties is determined mathematically under dynamic transverse load. The axisymmetric conditions are considered in the problem. The viscoelastic properties obey the standard linear solid model in shear and the bulk behavior in elastic. The equations of motion are extracted using Hamilton’s principle...

There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...

We perform the analytic investigation of stress-strain state a functionally graded cylindrical shell finite length heated by two-dimensional temperature field. The properties material are regarded as functions thickness coordinate. In our investigations, we use equations refined theory shells that takes into account deformation transverse shear and normal deformation. heat-conduction equation i...

We consider a bilinear reduced-strain finite element of the MITC family for a shallow Reissner-Naghdi type shell. We estimate the consistency error of the element in both membraneand bending-dominated states of deformation. We prove that in the membrane-dominated case, under severe assumptions on the domain, the finite element mesh and the regularity of the solution, an error bound O(h + t−1h1+...

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, ...
