Abstract: | In this article, an analytical method for buckling analysis of thin functionally graded (FG) rectangular plates is presented.
It is assumed that the material properties of the plate vary through the thickness of the plate as a power function. Based
on the classical plate theory (Kirchhoff theory), the governing equations are obtained for functionally graded rectangular
plates using the principle of minimum total potential energy. The resulting equations are decoupled and solved for rectangular
plate with different loading conditions. It is assumed that the plate is simply supported along two opposite edges and has
arbitrary boundary conditions along the other edges. The critical buckling loads are presented for a rectangular plate with
different boundary conditions, various powers of FGM and some aspect ratios. |
