In this study, free vibration of functionally graded rectangular plates for various types of boundary conditions has been presented . The properties of the plate are assumed as power- law form along the thickness direction , while poisson's ratio is kept constant. the linear vibration equations of functionally graded rectangular plates are derived based on first order shear deformation theory b...

This study presents a novel approach for addressing dynamical characteristics of fluid conveying axially functionally graded pipes. The variation material properties the pipe along axial direction is taken into account according to power-law function. Owing unified expression displacement field, developed model can be recast classical Euler – Bernoulli and Timoshenko tube models as well newly h...

This paper proposes the refined first order shear deformation theory to investigate the free vibration behavior of bidirectional functionally graded porous plates. This theory satisfies the transverse shear stress free conditions at the top and bottom of the plate, thus avoids the need of a shear correction factor. The rule of mixtures is employed to compute the effective material properties an...
