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...

Based on the differential transformation method, a semi-analytical solution is developed for free vibration and modal stress analyses of variable thickness two-directional functionally graded circular plates with restrained edges, resting on elastic foundations. Variations of the material and geometry parameters are monitored by five distinct exponential functions. The presented non-dimensional...

in this paper, the influence of the constituent volume fractions by changing the values of the power-law exponent with uniform pressure on the vibration frequencies of reinforced functionally graded cylindrical shells is studied. the fgm shell with ring is developed in accordance to the volume fraction law from two constituents namely stainless steel and nickel. these constituents are graded th...

by virtue of a complete set of two displacement potentials, an analytical derivation of the elastostatic green’s functions of an exponentially graded transversely isotropic bi-material full-space was presented. three-dimensional point-load green’s functions for stresses and displacements were given in line-integral representations. the formulation included a complete set of transformed stress-p...

Delamination fracture of a two-dimensional functionally graded multilayered four-point bending beam that exhibits non-linear behaviour of the material is analyzed. The fracture is studied analytically in terms of the strain energy release rate. The beam under consideration has an arbitrary number of layers. Each layer has individual thickness and material properties. A delamination crack is loc...

free vibration of simply supported circular cylindrical shell made of functionally graded material (fgm) under internal pressure was investigated. the effective material properties are assumed to vary continuously along the thickness direction according to a volume fraction power law distribution. first order shear deformation theory based on love's first approximation theory was utilized in th...

A semi-analytical method is used to study the effects of the multi vibration absorbers on the nonlinear functionally graded (FG) Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to periodic load. The material properties of the beam are assumed to be continuously graded in the thickness direction. The governing equations of functionally graded beam are obtained based on the Hamilton's principle and these equation...

in this paper, finite element elastic contact analysis of a functionally graded (fg) hollow brake disk in contact with pad, subjected to rotation, contact pressure and frictional heat is presented. the material properties vary through the thickness according to a power-law characterised by a grading index, n. the material property is purely steel at the core part and gradually moves and approac...

this paper presents a clear monograph on the optimization of thermal instability resistance of the fg (functionally graded) flat structures. for this aim, two fg flat structures, namely an fg beam and an fg circular plate, are considered. these structures are assumed to obey the first-order shear deformation theory, three-parameters power-law distribution of the constituents, and clamped bounda...

This study investigates the free vibration of the Two-Dimensional Functionally Graded Annular Plates (2D-FGAP). The theoretical formulations are based on the three-dimensional elasticity theory with small strain assumption. The Two-Dimensional Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (2D-GDQM) as an efficient and accurate semi-analytical approach is used to discretize the equations of motion ...
