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 co...

The functionally graded materials (FGM) have many advantages especially in thermal environments, and in the recent years they have been used in many engineering applications. A FGM plate is an inhomogeneous composite made of two constituents (usually ceramic and metal), with both the composition and the material properties varying smoothly through the thickness of the plate. The FGM plate vibra...

now a days, structures with planar geometry such as sheet metals, have attracted special consideration among advanced techno logia, and hence investing vibration behavior of sheet metal is of prim important . in particular regarding dynamical investigations, if the natural frequencies get ignored, the resonance phenomena can exert noun computing damages to the structure and systems. in this res...

This paper presents a numerical solution for vibration analysis of a cantilever trapezoidal thick plate. The material of the plate is considered to be graded through the thickness from a metal surface to a ceramic one according to a power law function. Kinetic and strain energies are derived based on the Reissner-Mindlin theory for thick plates and using Hamilton's principle, the governing equa...

Isotropic Nd-Fe-B thick-film magnets have been prepared using a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method with the control of laser energy density (LED) followed by post-annealing. The characteristics of the method are a high deposition rate up to several tens of microns per hour together with a reliability of magnetic properties due to the good transfer of composition from an Nd-Fe-B target to a fi...

on the basis of the steady-state two-dimensional theory of thermoelasticity, stress field around various holes in infinite isotropic plate is discussed. the plate is subjected to uniform heat flux and thermal insulated condition along the hole boundary is assumed. by using the complex potential functions and by applying the conformal mapping and solving the integral equations, the effect of blu...

We study the stability of general relativistic static thick disks, as an application we consider the thick disk generated by applying the “displace, cut, fill and reflect” method, usually known as the image method, to the Schwarzschild metric in isotropic coordinates. The isotropic Schwarzschild thick disk obtained from this method is the simplest model to describe, in the context of General Re...

This paper presents the bending stress analysis of anisotropic plate material under transverse loading using a three-dimensional (3-D) theory. The static elastic theory was used to formulate total energy expression thereafter, transformed into compatibility equation through general variation get slope and deflection relationship. solution equations equilibrium gave rise exact polynomial functio...
