In this paper, the stability of a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (FG-MEE) micro-beam under actuation of electrostatic pressure is studied. For this purpose Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and constitutive relations for magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials have been used. We have supposed that material properties vary exponentially along the thickness direction of the micro-beam. Gov...

The exchange terms in symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) are normally calculated within the so-called S2 or single approximation, which approximates all-electron antisymmetrizer by interchanges of at most one electron pair between interacting molecules. This approximation is typically very accurate van der Waals minimum separation and larger intermolecular distances but begins to deter...

in this paper the nonlinear bending analysis of thick functionally graded plates subjected to mechanical loading is studied. the formulation is derived based on the third-order shear deformation plate theory and von kármán type non-linearity. young’s modulus is assumed to vary according to a power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. the principle of virtual wo...

A weak form Galerkin finite element model for the nonlinear quasi-static and fully transient analysis of initially straight viscoelastic beams is developed using the kinematic assumptions of the third-order Reddy beam theory. The formulation assumes linear viscoelastic material properties and is applicable to problems involving small strains and moderate rotations. The viscoelastic constitutive...
