Simplified Seismic Dynamic Analysis of Sloshing Phenomenon in Rectangular Tanks with Multiple Vertical Baffles

Sloshing is a well-known phenomenon in liquid storage tanks subjected to base or body motions. In recent years the use of multiple vertical baffles for reducing the sloshing effects in tanks subjected to earthquake has not been taken into consideration so much. On the other hand, although some of the existing computer programs are capable to model sloshing phenomenon with acceptable accuracy, t...

Effects of Geometric Nonlinearity on Stress Analysis in Large Amplitude Vibration of thin Circular Functionally Graded Plates With Rigid Core

Abstract  In this paper , the nonlinear the nonlinear free and forced axisymmetric vibration of a thin circular functionally graded plate with rigid core is formulated in terms of von-Karman’s dynamic equation , and a semi-analytical approach is developed.Functionally graded material (FGM) properties vary through the thickness of the plate.FGM s are spatial composites within which material prop...

Analysis of Mode III Fraction in Functionally Graded Plate with Linearly Varying Properties

A model is provided for crack problem in a functionally graded semi-infinite plate under an anti-plane load. The characteristic of material behavior is assumed to change in a linear manner along the plate length. Also the embedded crack is placed in the direction of the material change. The problem is solved using two separate techniques. Primary, by applying Laplace and Fourier transformation,...
