This paper describes a unified solution to investigate free vibration solutions of functionally graded (FG) spherical shell with general boundary restraints. The analytical model is established based on the first-order shear deformation theory, and the material varies uniformly along the thickness of FG spherical shell which is divided into several sections along the meridian direction. The displacement functions along circumferential and axial direction are, respectively, composed by Fourier series and Jacobi polynomial regardless of boundary restraints. The boundary restraints of FG spherical shell can be easily simulated according to penalty method of spring stiffness technique, and the vibration solutions are obtained by Rayleigh–Ritz method. To verify the reliability and accuracy of the present solutions, the convergence and numerical verification have been conducted about different boundary parameters, Jacobi parameter, etc. The results obtained by the present method closely agree with those obtained from the published literatures, experiments, and finite element method (FEM). The impacts of geometric dimensions and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of FG spherical shell structure are also presented.

The aim of this article is to find an exact analytical solution for free vibration characteristics of thin functionally graded rectangular plates with different boundary conditions. The governing equations of motion are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Using an analytical method, three partial differential equations of motion are reformulated into two new decoupled equations. Based on the Navier solution, a closed-form solution is presented for natural frequencies of functionally graded simply supported rectangular plates. Then, considering Levy-type solution, natural frequencies of functionally graded plates are presented for various boundary conditions. Three mode shapes of a functionally graded rectangular plate are also presented for different boundary conditions. In addition, the effects of aspect ratio, thickness—length ratio, power law index, and boundary conditions on the vibration characteristics of functionally graded rectangular plates are discussed in details. Finally, it has been shown that the effects of in-plane displacements on natural frequencies of functionally graded plates under different boundary conditions have been studied.

In this paper, free vibration of a bidirectional functionally graded sandwich (BFGSW) beams partially resting on a Pasternak foundation is studied. The beams with three layers, an axially functionally graded core and two bidirectional functionally graded face sheets, are made from a mixture of metal and ceramic. The material properties of the face sheets are considered to vary continuously in both the thickness and length directions by the power-law distributions, and they are estimated by Mori-Tanaka scheme. A sinusoidal shear deformation theory, in which the transverse displacement is split into bending and shear parts, is employed to derive energy expressions of the beam. A finite element formulation is formulated and employed to compute vibration characteristics. Numerical result reveals that the ratio of foundation support to the beam length plays an important role on the vibration behaviour, and the dependence of the frequencies upon the material grading indexes is governed by this ratio. Numerical investigation is carried out to highlight the effects of the material distribution, the layer thickness ratio, the foundation stiffness on the vibration characteristics of the beams. The influence of the aspect ratio on the frequencies of the beams and is also examined and discussed.
