...Shaonan Shi; Feixiang Tang; Yongqiang Yu; Yuzheng Guo; Fang Dong; Sheng Liu Purpose Hoping to uncover the physical principles of the vibration of the functionally graded material (FGM) microplate, by which the authors can make contributions to the design and manufacturing process in factories like...

... load Functionally graded material Limit analysis Halpin-tsai Variational principle The source of porosity or void formation in a composite or functionally graded material is a result of improper fabrication techniques. In the case of a rotating disk, the presence of porosity degrades its...

..., heat flux and thermal displacement gradient in a photo-TE medium. Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are the materials whose thermo-mechanical properties are continuously varying along one direction of its surface, these materials are of non-homogeneous composite kind. High temperature thermal...
