In this article, the bending and free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) nanocomposites Timoshenko beam model reinforced by single-walled boron nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) using micro-mechanical approach embedded in an elastic medium is studied. The modified coupled stress (MCST) and nonlocal elasticity theories are developed to take into account the size-dependent effect. The mechani...

In the present paper, a semi-analytical solution is presented for free vibration analysis of circular plates with complex combinations of the geometric parameters, edge-conditions, material heterogeneity, and elastic foundation coefficients. The presented solution covers many engineering applications. The plate is assumed to have a variable thickness and made of a heterogeneous material whose p...

This paper summarizes some issues of a new universal method for static calculation complex rod and plate systems on an arbitrary elastic base under the influence external load, when modeling with various models, ranging from classical Winkler model to combined Winkler-Kogan model. The relevance timeliness proposed work lies in fact that calculating structures have not yet been fully investigate...

Free vibration of a magnetoelectroelastic plate resting on a Pasternak foundation is investigated based on Mindlin theory. The in-plane electric and magnetic fields can be ignored for plates. According to the Maxwell equation and magnetoelectric boundary condition, the variation of electric and magnetic potentials along the thickness direction of the plate is determined. Using Hamilton’s princi...

In this research work, first, based on the three-dimensional elasticity theory and by means of the Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM), free vibration characteristics of functionally graded (FG) rectangular plates resting on Pasternak foundation are focused. The two-constituent functionally graded plate consists of ceramic and metal grading through the thickness. A three-parameter...
