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 paper, the effects of carbon nanotube (CNT) orientation and aggregation on the static behavior of functionally graded nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by CNTs are investigated based on a mesh-free method. The used nanocomposites are made of the straight CNTs that are embedded in an isotropic polymer as matrix. The straight CNTs are oriented, randomly or aligned or local aggregated int...

In this work, we study the vibration and bending response of functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) rectangular plates embedded on different substrates thermal conditions. The governing equations problem along with boundary conditions are determined by employing minimum total potential energy Hamilton’s principle, within a higher-order shear deformation theoretic...

The buckling behavior of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) plates resting on Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundations under in-plane loads for various temperatures is investigated using element-free Galerkin (EFG) method based on first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The modified shear correction factor is used based on energy equivalence principle. Carbon ...

In this research, the analytical and numerical investigation of a cylindrical shell made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) reinforced by laminated composite subjected to internal pressure is presented. Using the infinitesimal theory of elasticity, the analytical solution of stress and strain in vessels made of FGMs is studied first. It is assumed that the elasticity modulus follows a powe...

based on three-dimensional theory of elasticity, static analysis of functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (fg-cntrc) cylindrical panel subjected to mechanical uniformed load with simply supported boundary conditions is carried out. in the process, stress and displacement fields are expanded according to the fourier series along the axial and circumferential coordinates. from ...

in this article, thermo-elastic-behavior of a thick-walled cylinder made from a polystyrene nanocomposite reinforced with functionally graded (fg) single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) was carried out in radial direction while subjected to a steady state thermal field. the swcnts were assumed aligned, straight with infinite length and a uniform layout. two types of variations in the volume fr...
