In this paper, the in-plane and out-of-plane free vibrations of the functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (FG-MEE) rectangular plate on a pasternak foundation were evaluated based on exponential shear deformation theory (ESDT) and first order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The material properties of FG-MEE varied along the thickness according to a power-law distribution model. It was assumed that the FG-MEE plate is subjected to initial external electrical and magnetic potentials; mreover, simply-supported boundary conditions were considered for all the edges of the FG-MEE plate. Firstly, the corresponding partial differential equations (PDEs) were derived using Hamilton’s principle, then, the natural frequencies were determined by solving the obtained equations through Navier’s approach according to the assumed boundary conditions. The results revealed that the natural frequencies of the plate decrease/increase with the increase of the electric/magnetic potentials. Moreover, the results showed a 0.03%, difference between the natural frequencies of the plate with a thickness-to-length ratio of 0.1 based on FSDT and ESDT; when the aspect ratio was increased to 0.2 and 0.3 this difference rose to 0.2% and 0.5%, respectively.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to carry out free vibration and buckling analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plate. Design/methodology/approach Equilibrium and stability equations of FGM rectangular plate under different boundary conditions are derived using finite element method-based inverse trigonometric shear deformation theory (ITSDT). Eight-noded rectangular plate element with seven degrees of freedom at each node is used for the present analysis. The power-law distribution method has been considered for the continuously graded variation in composition of the ceramic and metal phases across the thickness of a functionally graded plate. Findings The finite element formulation incorporated with ITSDT and provisions of the constitutive model of FGM plate has been implemented in a numerical code to obtain the natural frequency and critical buckling load under uniaxial and biaxial compressive load. The influence of material gradation, volume fraction index, span to thickness ratio and boundary constraints over free vibration and buckling response has been studied. Originality/value Development and validation of finite element methodology using ITSDT to predict the structural response of the FGM plates under different loading, geometric and boundary conditions.

Plane Elasticity Theory

In this paper, the first order shear deformation theory is used to derive an analytical formulation for shrink-fitted thick-walled functionally graded cylinders. It is assumed that the cylinders have constant Poisson’s ratio and the elastic modulus varies radially along the thickness with a power function. Furthermore, a finite element simulation is carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics, which has the advantage of defining material properties as analytical functions. The results from first order shear deformation theory are compared with the findings of both plane elasticity theory and FE simulation. The results of this study could be used to design and manufacture for elastic shrink-fitted FG cylinders.

Governing Equations

In this paper, a refined quasi-three-dimensional shear deformation theory for thermo-mechanical analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates resting on a two-parameter (Pasternak model) elastic foundation is developed. Unlike the other higher-order theories the number of unknowns and governing equations of the present theory is only four against six or more unknown displacement functions used in the corresponding ones. Furthermore, this theory takes into account the stretching effect due to its quasi-three-dimensional nature. The boundary conditions in the top and bottoms surfaces of the sandwich functionally graded plate are satisfied and no correction factor is required. Various types of functionally graded material sandwich plates are considered. The governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using the principle of virtual displacements. Numerical examples, selected from the literature, are illustrated. A good agreement is obtained between numerical results of the refined theory and the reference solutions. A parametric study is presented to examine the effect of the material gradation and elastic foundation on the deflections and stresses of functionally graded sandwich plate resting on elastic foundation subjected to thermo-mechanical loading.

Functionally Graded Plate

Functionally graded square and rectangular plates of different thicknesses placed on the elastic foundation modeled according to the Winkler-Pasternak theory have been studied. The thermal and mechanical characteristics, apart from Poisson’s ratio, are considered to continuously differ through the thickness of the studied material as stated in a power-law distribution. A mathematical model of functionally graded plate which include interaction with elastic foundation is defined. The equilibrium and stability equations are derived using high order shear deformation theory that comprises various kinds of shape function and the von Karman nonlinearity. A new analytically integrable shape function has been introduced. Hamilton’s principle has been applied with the purpose of acquiring the equations of motion. An analytical method for identifying both natural frequencies and critical buckling temperature for cases of linear and nonlinear temperature change through the plate thickness has been established. In order to verify the derived theoretical results on numerical examples, an original program code has been implemented within software MATLAB. Critical buckling temperature and natural frequencies findings are shown below. Previous scientific research and papers confirms that presented both the theoretical formulation and the numerical results are accurate. The comparison has been made between newly established findings based on introduced shape function and the old findings that include 13 different shape functions available in previously published articles. The final part of the research provides analysis and conclusions related to the impact of the power-law index, foundation stiffness, and temperature gradient on critical buckling temperature and natural frequencies of the functionally graded plates.

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.

Stretching Effect

In this paper, a simple and accurate sinusoidal trigonometric theory (STT) for the bending analysis of functionally graded single-layer and sandwich plates and shells is presented for the first time. The principal feature of this theory is that models the thickness stretching effect with only 4-unknowns, even less than the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) which as it is well-known has 5-unknowns. The governing equations and boundary conditions are derived by employing the principle of virtual work. Then, a Navier-type closed-form solution is obtained for functionally graded plates and shells subjected to bi-sinusoidal load for simply supported boundary conditions. Consequently, numerical results of the present STT are compared with other refined theories, FSDT, and 3D solutions. Finally, it can be concluded that: (a) An accurate but simple 4-unknown STT with thickness stretching effect is developed for the first time. (b) Optimization procedure (described in the paper) appear to be of paramount importance for 4-unknown higher order shear deformation theories (HSDTs) of this gender, so deserves a lot of further research. (c) Transverse shear stresses results are sensitive to the theory and need carefully attention.
