TL;DR: In this article, an elastic, rectangular, and simply supported, sigmoid functionally graded material (S-FGM) beam of thick thickness subjected to uniformly distributed transverse loading has been investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a displacement based high-order shear deformation theory is introduced for the static response of functionally graded sandwich plate, which is variationally consistent, has strong similarity with classical plate theory in many aspects, does not require shear correction factor, and gives rise to transverse shear stress variation.

TL;DR: In this article, an approximate hand-method for seismic analysis of an asymmetric building structure having constant properties along its height is presented, where the building is stiffened by a combination of shear walls and thin-walled open section structures.

TL;DR: In this paper, thermal buckling analysis of S-FGM is investigated by using first order shear deformation theory, where material properties are varied continuously in the thickness direction according to a sigmoid distribution.

TL;DR: In this article, a parametric study has been conducted to investigate the sensitivity of interface behaviors to parameters such as the interface layer stiffness, and the results agree reasonably well with those from the existing solutions.
