In this paper, an analytical approach for nonlinear buckling and post-buckling behavior of stiffened porous functionally graded plate rested on Pasternak's elastic foundation under mechanical load in thermal environment is presented. The orthogonal and/or oblique stiffeners are attached to the surface of plate and are included in the calculation by improving the Lekhnitskii's smeared stiffener technique in the framework of higher-order shear deformation plate theory. The complex equilibrium and stability equations are established based on the Reddy's higher-order shear deformation plate theory and taken into account the geometrical nonlinearity of von Kármán. The solution forms of displacements satisfying the different boundary conditions are chosen, the stress function method and the Galerkin procedure are used to solve the problem. The good agreements of the present analytical solution are validated by making the comparisons of the present results with other results. In addition, the effects of porosity distribution, stiffener, volume fraction index, thermal environment, elastic foundation… on the critical buckling load and post-buckling response of porous functionally graded material plates are numerically investigated.

Analysis Of Stability

In this paper, the buckling and post-buckling behaviors of eccentrically  stiffened functionally graded material (ES-FGM) plates on elastic  foundations subjected to in-plane compressive loads or thermal loads are  investigated by an analytical solution. The novelty of this work is that FGM  plates are reinforced by FGM stiffeners and the temperature, stiffener,  foundation are considered. The first-order shear deformation  plate theory is used. The thermal elements of plate and stiffeners in  fundamental equations are introduced. Theoretical formulations based on the  smeared stiffeners technique and the first-order shear deformation plate  theory, are derived. The analytical expressions to determine the static  critical buckling load and post-buckling load-deflection curves are  obtained.

Transverse Displacement

In this paper, free vibrations of Porous Functionally Graded Beams (P-FGBs), resting on two-parameter elastic foundations, and exposed to three forms of thermal field, uniform, linear, and sinusoidal, are studied using a Refined Higher-order shear Deformation Theory. The present theory accounts for shear deformation by considering a constant transverse displacement and a higher-order variation of the axial displacement through the thickness of the beam. The stress-free boundary conditions are satisfied on the upper and lower surfaces of the beam without using any shear correction factor. The material properties are temperature-dependent and vary continuously through the depth direction of the beam, based on a modified power-law rule, in which two kinds of porosity distributions, uniform, and nonuniform, through the cross-section area of the beam, are considered. Hamilton’s principle is applied to obtain governing equations of motion, which are solved using a Navier-type analytical solution for simply supported P-FGB. Numerical examples are proposed and discussed in detail, to prove the effect of the thermal environment, the porosity distribution, and the influence of several parameters such as the power-law index, porosity volume fraction, slenderness ratio, and elastic foundation parameters on the critical buckling temperatures and the natural frequencies of the P-FGB.

Pasternak Elastic Foundation

This paper deals with the free vibration and buckling analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plates, resting on the Winkler–Pasternak elastic foundation. The higher order shear deformation plate theory (HSPT) is adopted for the realistic variation of transverse displacement through the thickness, using the power law distribution to describe the variation of the material properties. Both the effects of shear deformation and rotary inertia are considered. In the present model, the plate is discretised into [Formula: see text] eight noded serendipity quadratic elements with seven nodal degrees of freedom (DOFs). The validation study is carried out by comparing the calculated values with those given in the literature. The effects of various parameters like the Winkler and Pasternak modulus coefficients, volume fraction index, aspect ratio, thickness ratio and different boundary conditions on the behaviour of the FGM plates are studied.

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.

Shear Deformation Plate Theory

This article presents free vibration and buckling analyses of functionally graded blades with variable thickness subjected to mechanical and thermal loading using isogeometric analysis as a powerful numerical method. The proposed method is based on deployment of Hamilton’s principle to the two-dimensional kinematics of blades. The governing equations are derived in the context of a modified form of higher order shear deformation plate theory that merely needs C0-continuity (C0-higher order shear deformation plate theory). Without the necessity of defining a shear correction factor, the theory can accurately predict the solution for different thickness-to-length ratios. The numerical predictions for the buckling loads and natural frequencies are successfully compared with the available solutions in the published articles and in the lack of relevant results, finite element analysis using ANSYS is used for verification of the model. The effects of variable thickness and aspect ratio on the natural frequencies and mode shapes known as the frequencies loci veering phenomena are assessed for the first time, which is an important design factor for the blades. The proposed method uses non-uniform rational B-spline element, which is able to approximate linear and nonlinear thickness distribution and the couple modes with an excellent numerical consistency. The influences of aspect ratio, thickness variation, taper ratio, volume fraction exponent, and boundary conditions on the free vibration and buckling of variable-thickness functionally graded blades are also examined.
