Based on the differential transformation method, a semi-analytical solution is developed for free vibration and modal stress analyses of variable thickness two-directional functionally graded circular plates with restrained edges, resting on elastic foundations. Variations of the material and geometry parameters are monitored by five distinct exponential functions. The presented non-dimensional...

in the present paper, an exact solution for transient response of an infinitely long functionally graded thick-walled cylinder subjected to dynamic pressures at the boundary surfaces is presented for arbitrary initial conditions. the cylinder is assumed to have a plane-strain condition and the dynamic pressures are assumed to be imposed uniformly and axisymmetrically on the boundary surfaces. m...

in this paper, asymmetric buckling analysis of functionally graded (fg) circular plates with temperature dependent property that subjected to the uniform radial compression and thermal loading is investigated. this plate is on an elastic medium that simulated by winkler and pasternak foundation. mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary nonlinearly by temperature change. the equili...
