in this article, thermal stability of beams made of functionally graded material (fgm) is considered. the derivations of equations are based on the one-dimensional theory of elasticity. the material properties vary continuously through the thickness direction. tanigawa's model for the variation of poisson's ratio, the modulus of shear stress, and the coefcient of thermal expansion is...

Anisotropic dielectric response occurs naturally due to the presence of gradation, like in functionally graded materials or graded biological cells. However, these materials with locally anisotropic dielectric responses can have macroscopically isotropic responses. In treating graded particles of anisotropic materials, traditional isotropic gradation methods need to be modified. In this work, w...

A new analytical approach for nonlinear thermal buckling of Functionally Graded Graphene Platelet Reinforced Composite (FG-GPLRC) circular plates and shallow spherical caps using the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is presented in this paper. The are assumed to be subjected uniformly distributed loads. By applying Galerkin method, relations between load–deflection achieved determine...

Abstract In this study, the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is used to establish a nonlinear dynamic model for conical shell truncated by functionally graded graphene platelet-reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC). The vibration analyses of FG-GPLRC are presented. Considering platelets (GPLs) with three different distribution patterns, modified Halpin-Tsai calculate effective Young’s modu...

In this study, free vibration of functionally graded rectangular plates for various types of boundary conditions has been presented . The properties of the plate are assumed as power- law form along the thickness direction , while poisson's ratio is kept constant. the linear vibration equations of functionally graded rectangular plates are derived based on first order shear deformation theory b...

Although titanium/hydroxyapatite composite is an attractive material for dental implants, it would be more useful if it could be produced as a functionally graded material (FGM). In this paper, microstructure and microhardness of a five-layer titanium/hydroxyapatite functionally graded material has been investigated. First, titanium and hydroxyapatite (HA) powders were mixed with the Ti to HA v...

In the present research, dynamic responses of multilayer functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) spherical panels under blast loading are studied. Three-dimensional elasticity theory is employed to derive governing equations. The distribution (GPLs) in each layer uniform and random with a constant weight fraction. GPLs concentration across panel thickness may be o...

This research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. Heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. Thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. By considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

In this paper dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded panel is studied using a semi-analytical numerical method entitled the state-space based differential method (SSDQM) and comparative behavior modeling by artificial neural network (ANN) for different parameters. A semi-analytical approach which makes use the three-dimensional elastic theory and assuming the material propert...
