Within a framework of the state space method, an axisymmetric solution for functionally graded one-dimensional hexagonal piezoelectric quasi-crystal circular plate is presented in this paper. Applying the finite Hankel transform onto the state space vector, an ordinary differential equation with constant coefficients is obtained for the circular plate provided that the free boundary terms are zero and an exponential function distribution of material properties is assumed. The ordinary differential equation is then used to obtain the stress, displacement and electric components in the physical domain of the elastic simply supported circular plate through the use of the propagator matrix method and the inverse Hankel transform. The numerical studies are carried out to show the validity of the present solution and reveal the influence of material inhomogeneity on the axisymmetric bending of the circular plate with different layers and loadings, which provides guidance for the design and manufacture of functionally graded one-dimensional hexagonal piezoelectric quasi-crystal circular plate.
