Based on the first-order shear deformation theory, this paper focuses on the free vibration behavior of two-dimensional functionally graded material truncated conical shells resting on Winkler–Pasternak foundations. The materials are assumed to be isotropic and inhomogeneous in the length and thickness directions of truncated conical shell. The material properties of the truncated conical shell are varied in these directions according to power law functions. The derived governing equations are solved using differential quadrature method. Convergence of this method is checked and the fast rate of convergence is observed. The primary results of this study are obtained for ( SS− SL), ( CS− CL), and ( CS− SL) boundary conditions and compared with those available in the literatures. Furthermore, effects of geometrical parameters, material power indexes, mechanical boundary conditions, Winkler and Pasternak foundation moduli on the nondimensional frequency parameters of the two-dimensional functionally graded material truncated conical shell are studied.

In the present study, free vibration and buckling characteristics of a sandwich functionally graded material (FGM) plate resting on the Pasternak elastic foundation have been investigated. The formulation is based on non-polynomial higher-order shear deformation theory with inverse hyperbolic shape function. A new modified sigmoid law is presented to compute the effective material properties of sandwich FGM plate. The governing equilibrium equations have been derived using Hamilton’s principle. Non-dimensional frequencies and critical buckling loads are evaluated by considering different boundary conditions based on admissible functions satisfying the desired primary and secondary variables. Comprehensive parametric studies have been performed to analyze the influence of geometric configuration, volume fraction exponent, elastic medium parameter, and non-dimensional load parameter on the non-dimensional frequency and critical buckling load. These parametric studies have been done for various boundary conditions and different configurations of the sandwich plate. The computed results can be used as a benchmark for future comparison of sandwich S-FGM plates.

AbstractIn this paper, free vibration analysis of functionally graded rectangular plate is investigated based on the first order shear deformation theory and the effect of in-plane displacements on the natural frequencies of such plate is studied. The governing equations of motion are obtained, which are five coupled partial differential equations, without any simplification. Some mathematical manipulation leads us to decouple the equations. The decoupled equations are solved by the Levy's method for various boundary conditions. As the results show, in some boundary conditions the in-plane displacements cause a drastic change of frequencies. In other words, neglecting the in-plane displacement, which is assumed in some papers, is not proper for these boundary conditions. However, in the other boundary conditions, the natural frequencies are not significantly affected by the in-plane displacements. The results for various boundary conditions are discussed in detail and some interpretations for these differences are provided. Besides to the comparisons, the accurate natural frequencies of the plate for six different boundary conditions with several aspect ratios, thickness-length ratios and power law indices are presented. The natural frequencies of Mindlin functionally graded rectangular plates with considering the in-plane displacements are reported for the first time and can be used as benchmark.
