This paper presents new exact 3-D (three-dimensional) elasticity closed-form solutions for out-of-plane free vibration of thick rectangular single layered FG (functionally graded) plates and thick rectangular homogeneous plate coated by a functionally graded layer with simply supported boundary conditions. It is assumed that the plate is on a Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation and elasticity ...

In this research static deflection and free vibration of homogeneous nanobeams coated by a functionally graded (FG) layer is investigated according to the nonlocal elasticity theory. A higher order beam theory is used that does not need the shear correction factor. The equations of motion (equilibrium equations) are extracted by using Hamilton’s principle. The material properties are considered...

this work presents free vibration analysis of laminated rectangular plates with classical boundary conditions based on the classical plate theory (cpt). the first involves an s-fgm plate with different boundary conditions. then involves a two-layer plate in which an s-fgm layer is coated on a homogeneous substrate with classical boundary conditions, simply called an s-fgm-coated plate; the othe...

In this article, an exact levy solution is presented for bending analysis of a functionally graded (FG) annular sector plate. The governing equilibrium equations are obtained based on the classical plate theory. Introducing an analytical method for the first time, the three coupled governing equilibrium equations are replaced by an independent equation in term of transverse deflection. This equ...

In this article, the effect of size-dependent on the buckling and vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) double-layer boron nitride plate based on classical plate theory (CPT) under electro-thermo-mechanical loadings which is surrounded by elastic foundation is examined. This subject is developed using modified couple stress theory. Using Hamilton's principle, the governing equations of...

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...

background: titanium (ti) implants are commonly coated with hydroxyapatite (ha). however, ha has some disadvantages such as brittleness, low tensile strength and fracture toughness. it is desirable to combine the excellent mechanical properties of zro2 and the chemical inertness of al2o3 with respect to the purpose of this project which was coating ti implants with ha-zro2-al2o3 to modify the s...
