Based on the strain assumption and linear mixing rate of Vogit, the physical property parameter expression of functionally graded material plates is obtained. According to the theory of small deformation and Hamilton principle, the dynamic buckling governing equation of functionally graded material plates under longitudinal load is obtained. Using the method of trial function, the analytical expression of critical load and the buckling solution of the functionally graded material plate under conditions of one edge fixed and three edges simply supported is obtained. The analytical expression of critical load is numerically calculated by METLAB. The influence of geometric size, gradient index, modal order and material composition on critical load is discussed. The results show that the critical buckling load decreases exponentially with the increase of critical length, decreases with the increase of gradient index k, increases with the increase of modal order, and the elastic modulus of constituent materials has significant effect on the critical load. The higher-order buckling modes of functionally graded material plates are prone to occur under the condition of high longitudinal load.

An analytical approach for predicting the free vibration and elastic critical load of functionally graded material (FGM) thin cylindrical shells filled with internal pressured fluid is presented in this study. The vibration of the FGM cylindrical shell is described by the Flügge shell theory, where the internal static pressure is considered as the prestress term in the shell equations. The motion of the internal fluid is described by the acoustic wave equation. The natural frequencies of the FGM cylindrical shell under different internal pressures are obtained with the wave propagation method. The relationship between the internal pressure and the natural frequency of the cylindrical shell is analyzed. Then the linear extrapolation method is employed to obtain the elastic critical load of the FGM cylindrical shell from the condition that the increasing pressure has resulted in zero natural frequency. The accuracy of the present method is verified by comparison with the published results. The effects of gradient index, boundary conditions and structural parameters on the elastic critical load of the FGM cylindrical shell are discussed. Compared with the experimental and numerical analyses based on the external pressure, the present method is simple and easy to carry out.

This work investigates the complete analytical solution for functionally graded material (FGM) plates incorporated with smart material. The odjective of the present work is to determine bending characteristics of piezoelectric FGM plates with different geometrical parameters, voltages and boundary conditions for electro-mechanical loading. In this work an analytical formulation based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) is presented for the piezoelectric FGM plates. The solutions are obtained in closed from using Navier’s technique for piezoelectric FGM plates a specific type of simply supported boundary conditions and pc code have been developed to find out the deflections and stresses for various parameters. All the solutions are plotted against aspect proportion, side to thickness proportion as a function of material variety parameter (n) and thickness coordinate for different voltages. The significant trends from the results are obtained.

Analytical formulations and solutions to the static analysis of simply supported Functionally Graded Material (FGM) plates hitherto not reported in the literature based on a higher-order refined shear deformation theory with nine degrees-of-freedom already reported in the literature are presented. This computational model incorporates the plate deformations which account for the effect of transverse shear deformation. The transverse displacement is assumed to be constant throughout the thickness. In addition, another higher order theory with five degrees-of-freedom and the first order theory already reported in the literature are also considered for comparison. The governing equations of equilibrium using all the computational models are derived using the Principle of Minimum Potential Energy (PMPE) and the analytical solutions are obtained in closed-form using Naviers solution technique. A simply supported plate with SS-1 boundary conditions subjected to transverse loading is considered for all the problems under investigation. The varying parameters considered are the side-to-thickness ratio, power law function, edge ratio and the degree of anisotropy. Correctness of the formulation and the solution method is first established and then extensive numerical results using all the models are presented which will serve as a bench mark for future investigations.

This paper investigates the stability analysis of plates made of functionally graded material (FGM) and integrated with piezoelectric actuator and sensor at top and bottom face subjected to electrical and mechanical loading. The finite element formulation is presented using degenerated shell element, von-Karman hypothesis, higher-order shear deformation theory and considering the piezoelectric effect. The governing equilibrium equation is derived using the principle of minimum energy and solution for critical buckling load is obtained by solving Eigen value problem. The material properties of the FGM plates are assumed to be graded along the thickness direction according to simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fraction of the constituents, while the poison’s ratio is assumed to be constant. Stability analysis is carried out on simply supported plate made of newly introduced metal based functionally graded material (FGM) i.e. mixture of aluminum and stainless steel which exhibits the two different material properties in single material i.e. high corrosion resistance as well as high strength. Results show that the buckling strength of plate increases with increase in volume fraction indices through the thickness and it can be further improved with the help of piezoelectric effect.

The current study presents the buckling analysis of radially-loaded circular plate with variable thickness made of functionally graded material. The boundary conditions of the plate is either simply supported or clamped. The stability equations were obtained using energy method based on Love-Kichhoff hypothesis and Sander's non-linear strain-displacement relation for thin plates. The finite-element method is used to determine the critical buckling load. The results obtained show good agreement with known analytical and numerical data. The effects of thickness variation and Poisson's ratio are investigated by calculating the buckling load. These effects are found not to be the same for simply supported and clamped plates.

The thermal vibration study of magnetostrictive functionally graded material (FGM) plate under rapid heating is computed by using the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method. The dynamic equilibrium differential equations with displacements and shear rotations of magnetostrictive FGM plate under the rapid heating are normalized and discretized into the dynamic discretized equations. The computational solutions of magnetostrictive FGM plate with four simply supported edges are obtained. Some parametric effects on the magnetostrictive FGM plates are analyzed, they are: thickness of mounted magnetostrictive layer, control gains of the proportional negative derivative, rapid heating flux values, and power law index values of FGM plate.

Thermal postbuckling of solid circular plates made of a through-the-thickness functionally graded material (FGM) is analyzed in this paper. Initial imperfection of the plate is also taken into account. Each thermomechanical property of the plate is assumed to be a function of the temperature and thickness coordinate. Equivalent properties of the FGM media are obtained based on three different homogenization schemes, namely, Voigt rule, Mori–Tanaka scheme, and self-consistent estimate. Temperature profile is assumed to be through-the-thickness direction only. The solution of the heat conduction equation is obtained using an iterative central finite difference scheme. Various types of thermal loadings, such as uniform temperature rise, temperature specified at surfaces, and heat flux, are considered. Nonlinear equilibrium equations of the plate are obtained by means of the conventional Ritz method. Solution of the resulting nonlinear equilibrium equations and temperature distribution are obtained simultaneously at each step of heating. It is shown that response of a perfect clamped FGM plate is of the bifurcation type of buckling with stable postbuckling equilibrium branch, whereas imperfect clamped and perfect/imperfect simply supported FGM plates do not reveal the bifurcation type of instability through the nonuniform heating process. Furthermore, amplitude of initial imperfection is an important factor on the equilibrium path of FGM circular plates, especially for simply supported ones.
