This paper studies the in-plane free vibration of axially functionally graded (AFG) circular arches with non-uniform cross-section. The geometric and material properties of circular arches with regular polygon cross-section vary symmetrically about the mid-arc along the axial direction in quadratic polynomial form. The governing differential equations of the motion are derived, and the symmetric and anti-symmetric boundary conditions of the arches are developed for applying initial and boundary value problems in the solution method. The computed results agree well with the results of the finite element software ADINA. The effects of geometrical and material parameters on the natural frequency and mode shape of AFG circular arches are investigated.
