In this paper, the influence of the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) on the thermal
stress analysis of laminated composite plates is explored. By introducing the undetermined …

Beetle elytron plate (BEP), which is derived from the bionics of Trypoxylus dichotomus's
elytra, is a typical lightweight and high-strength structure with superior and comprehensive …

In this paper, we investigate numerically the dynamic snap-through motion of a shallow arch
micro-beam that is electrostatically excited through three separated electrodes. It is excited …

The principal goal of this research article is to examine the forced vibration of Functionally
Graded Material (FGM) axisymmetric plates with the aid of the finite element method in the …

The present investigation focuses on the design and mathematical modeling of a
microelectromechanical (MEMS) mode-localized based sensor/actuator system. This device …

This study examines the influence of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and multi-walled
carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the mechanical properties of SiO 2-loaded epoxy …

Purpose A graphene platelets (GPLs)-reinforced aluminum matrix core, sandwiched
between porous functionally graded material (FGM) face sheets is an innovative composite …

This article aims to demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of the strain based approach
in analyzing pressurized FGM cylinders with arbitrarily varying material properties. A sector …

Abstract Background The Isogeometric Method (IGM) has been widely explored in the
structural analysis of plates with arbitrary and complex shapes, particularly in the context of …
