This study presents an exhaustive review on modelling and analysis of multi-directional
graded (beam/plate/shell) structures. From the past few decades, a significant increase in …

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are novel materials whose properties change
gradually with respect to their dimensions. It is the advanced development of formerly used …

In this article, an efficient and simple refined theory is proposed for buckling analysis of
functionally graded plates by using a new displacement field which includes undetermined …

The capability to predict the nonlinear response of beams, plates and shells when subjected
to thermal and mechanical loads is of prime interest to structural analysis. In fact, many …

Smart control and dynamic investigation of a graphene nanoplatelets reinforced composite
(GPLRC) cylindrical shell surrounded by a piezoelectric layer as actuator and sensor based …

In this paper, an efficient and simple refined theory is presented for buckling analysis of
functionally graded plates. The theory, which has strong similarity with classical plate theory …

An analysis on the nonlinear dynamics of a clamped–clamped FGM circular cylindrical shell
subjected to an external excitation and uniform temperature change is presented in this …
