This work is the first exploration of the static bending and dynamic response analyses of piezoelectric bidirectional functionally graded plates by combining the third-order shear deformation theory of Reddy and the finite element approach, which can numerically model mechanical relations of the structure. The present approach and mechanical model are confirmed through the verification examples. The geometrical and material study is conducted to evaluate the effects of the feedback coefficients, volume fraction parameter, and constraint conditions on the static and dynamic behaviors of piezoelectric bidirectional functionally graded structures, and this work presents a wide variety of static and dynamic behaviors of the plate with many interesting results. There are many meanings that have not been mentioned by any work, especially the working performance of the structure is better than that when the feedback parameter of the piezoelectric component is added, that is, the piezoelectric layer increases the working efficiency. Numerical investigations are the important basis for calculating and designing related materials and structures in technical practice.

Nonlinear free vibration of stiffened functionally graded plates is presented by using the finite element method based on the new C0 third-order shear deformation theory. The material properties are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction by a power-law distribution. Based on the Von Karman theory and the third-order shear deformation theory, the nonlinear governing equations of motion are derived from the Hamilton’s principle. An iterative procedure based on the Newton-Raphson method is employed in computing the natural frequencies and mode shape. The comparison between these solutions and the other available ones suggests that this procedure is characterized by accuracy and efficiency.
