Transient Response of Magnetostrictive Functionally Graded Material Square Plates Under Rapid Heating

We used the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method to compute the transient responses of thermal stresses and center deflection amplitude in the magnetostrictive functionally graded material (FGM) square plate under rapid heating acting at its lower surface. We obtained the GDQ solutions in the three-layer of magnetostrictive FGM plates subjected to four simply supported edges. We presented the transient responses of thermal stress and center deflection amplitude of magnetostrictive FGM plates with/without velocity feedback control, respectively, under the effects of the ratio of length to thickness, the power law index, the temperature of environment and the applied heat flux.
