in this paper a mesh-free model of the functionally graded material (fgm) plate is presented.  the piezoelectric material as a sensor and actuator has been distributed on the top and bottom of the plate, respectively. the formulation of the problem is based on the classical laminated plate theory (clpt) and the principle of virtual displacements. moreover, the particle swarm optimization (pso) ...

In this article, the axisymmetric mechanical buckling of thin cylindrical shell made of functionally graded material (FGM) is considered. The governing equations for a thin cylinder based on the first-order shell theory and Timoshenko's assumptions are obtained. The equations are derived using the Sanders simplified kinematic relations and the principle of work and energy. The constituent mater...

the problem of several finite moving cracks in a functionally graded material is solved by dislocation technique under the condition of anti-plane deformation. by using the fourier transform the stress fields are obtained for a functionallygraded strip containing a screw dislocation. the stress components reveal the familiar cauchy singularity at thelocation of dislocation. the solution is empl...

   The main purpose of the present investigation is to analyze more comprehensively the size-dependent nonlinear free vibration response of multilayer functionally graded graphene platelet-reinforced composite (GPLRC) nanobeams. As a consequence, both of the hardening stiffness and softening stiffness of size effect are taken into consideration by implementation of the nonlocal str...

The aim of this paper is to compare the static deflections and stress results of layered and functionally graded composite beams under static load. In the comparison study, the results obtained for a cantilever beam under point load. The Timoshenko beam and the Euler-Bernoulli beam theories are used in the beam model. The energy based Ritz method is used for the solution of the problem and alge...

Abstract This paper presents an analytical solution for the free vibration behavior of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) doubly curved shallow shells with integrated piezoelectric layers. Here, linear distribution electric potential across thickness layer and five different types nanotube (CNT) distributions through direction are considered. Based on four-varia...

This work presents the study of dynamics and active control a cantilever sigmoid FGM beam with porosities in thermal environment. During this study, we considered Timoshenko beam’s theory combined finite element method (FEM). also comparative an experimental for vibration functionally graded piezoelectric (FGPM) to validate numerical model. Linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) optimal Kalman filter ...
