Present paper is devoted to stress and deformation analyses of heated variable thickness functionally graded (FG) circular plate with clamped supported, embedded on a gradient elastic foundation and subjected to non-uniform transverse load. The plate is coupled by an elastic medium which is simulated as a WinklerPasternak foundation with gradient coefficients in the radial and circumferential d...

In this study, the mechanical buckling response of refined hyperbolic shear deformable (FG) functionally graded nanobeams embedded in an elastic foundation is investigated based on the refined hyperbolic shear deformation theory. Material properties of the FG nanobeam change continuously in the thickness direction based on the power-law model. To capture small size effects, Eringen’s nonlocal e...

Abstract Flexural elastic waves and sound in solids are of great interest wide-ranging contexts such as ultrasound plates, geophysics, ocean engineering, aerospace automotive structures, musical acoustics. Despite bending being the most important for surface their propagation presence inevitable non-uniformity is poorly understood. Here we show branching focusing behaviour highly dispersive fle...

the high blood rate that often occurs in arteries may play a role in artery failure and tortuosity which leads to blackouts, transitory ischemic attacks and other diseases. however, vibration and instability analysis of carotid arteries are lacking. the objective of this study is to investigate the vibration and instability of the carotid arteries conveying blood under axial tension with surrou...

in present study, thermo-elastic buckling analysis of multi-layer orthotropic annular/circular graphene sheets is investigated based on eringen’s theory. the moderately thick and also thick nano-plates are considered. using the non-local first and third order shear deformation theories, the governing equations are derived. the van der waals interaction between the layers is simulated for multi-...

in this paper, an analytical solution for computing the linear plastic stresses and critical pressure in a fgm hollow cylinder under the internal pressure due to non-axisymmetric loads is developed. it has been assumed that the modulus of elasticity was varying through thickness of the fgm material according to a power law relationship. the poisson's ratio was considered constant throughou...
