Hygrothermal postbuckling behavior of functionally graded plates
Chang-Yull Lee,Ji-Hwan Kim +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the postbuckling behavior of a Functionally Graded Material (FGM) plate in hygrothermal environments is investigated. And the temperature and moisture effects on the model are significantly appeared due to the increase of the volume fraction index of the materials.

Thermal Buckling of Functionally Graded Plates
R Javaheri,M. R. Eslami +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the equilibrium and stability equations of a rectangular plate made of functionally graded material under thermal loads are derived, based on the classical plate theory, when it is assumed that the material properties vary as a power form of thicknesscoordinate variable z and when the variational method is used, the system of fundamental differential equations is established.
