The analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plates with material variation parameter (n), boundary conditions, aspect ratios and side to thickness ratios are investigated using higher order displacement model. The derivation of equations of motion for higher order displacement model is obtained using principle of virtual work. The nonlinear simultaneous equations are obtained by Navier's method considering certain parameters, loads and boundary conditions. The nonlinear algebraic equations are solved using Newton Raphson iterative method. The numerical results are obtained for various boundary conditions, material variation parameter, aspect ratio, side to thickness ratio and compared with the available solutions. The effect of shear deformation and nonlinearity response of functionally graded material plate is studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
