in this paper, free vibration of functionally graded rectangular simply supported thick plates based on two variable refined plate theory is presented. according to a power-law distribution, the mass density and elasticity modulus of the plate are considered to vary while poisson’s ratio is constant. in order to extract the five constitutive equations of motion, hamilton principle is employed. ...

this article deals with the buckling analysis of perfectly bonded cross-ply laminated composite plates reinforced by wavy carbon nanotubes (cnts) under in-plane loads using element free galerkin (efg) method based on first-order shear deformation theory (fsdt). the wavy single-walled cnts and poly-co-vinylene are used for the fibers and the matrix, respectively. the cnt fibers are distributed i...

A numerical study of steady-state, fully developed, MHD duct flows is presented for the case of an applied transverse magnetic field and a two-dimensional variation of the flow parameters in the plane perpendicular to the flow direction, with no variations in fluid properties. Solutions are found for (i) rectangular ducts with no obstacles and (ii) rectangular ducts containing thin flat plates,...

this paper presents a clear monograph on the optimization of thermal instability resistance of the fg (functionally graded) flat structures. for this aim, two fg flat structures, namely an fg beam and an fg circular plate, are considered. these structures are assumed to obey the first-order shear deformation theory, three-parameters power-law distribution of the constituents, and clamped bounda...

Natural vibration analysis of plates represents an important issue in engineering applications. In this paper, a new and simplify method for vibration analysis of circular and rectangular plates is presented. The design of an effective robust controller, which consistently attenuates transverse vibration of the plate caused by an external disturbance force, is given. The dynamics of the plate i...

Magneto-electro-elastic materials are multiphase smart materials that exhibit coupling among electrical, magnetic and mechanical energy fields. Due to this ability, they have been the topic of numerous research in the past decade. In this paper, buckling behavior of a multiphase magneto-electro-elastic rectangular plate with simply supported boundary conditions is investigated, based on Reddy’s...

In this paper, bending analysis of concentric and eccentric beam stiffened square and rectangular plate using the meshless collocation method has been investigated. For detecting the governing equations of plate and beams, Mindlin plate theory and Timoshenko beam theory have been used, respectively, with the stiffness matrices of the plate and the beams obtained separately. The stiffness matric...

The dynamic buckling of a thin orthotropic thermoviscoplastic plate is studied by analyzing the stability of a stressed/deformed plate under superimposed infinitesimal perturbations. Elastic deformations are neglected. The wavelength of the perturbation that has the maximum initial growth rate is assumed to determine the buckled shape of the plate. The buckled shape of a rectangular plate loade...

In this research, mechanical buckling of rectangular plates of functionally graded materials (FGMs) is considered. Equilibrium and stability equations of a FGM rectangular plate under uniform in-plane compression are derived. For isotropic materials, convergent buckling loads have been presented for non-uniformly compressed rectangular plates based on a rigorous superposition fourier solution f...
