This paper presents a comprehensive review of the various methods employed to study the
static, dynamic and stability behavior of Functionally Graded Material (FGM) plates. Both …

The meshfree methods in computational mechanics have been actively proposed and
increasingly developed in order to overcome some drawbacks in the conventional numerical …

In this research, bending and buckling analyses of porous functionally graded (FG) plate
under mechanical load are presented. The properties of the FG plate vary gradually across …

This article presents the combination of mixed interpolation of tensorial components
technique of triangular elements and the edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES …

The mechanical and thermal buckling analysis of functionally graded ceramic–metal plates
is presented in this study. The first-order shear deformation plate theory, in conjunction with …

In this paper, a new trigonometric higher-order theory including the stretching effect is
developed for the static analysis of advanced composite plates such as functionally graded …

Smoothed finite element method (SFEM) using quadrilateral elements was recently
proposed by Liu et al.[A smoothed finite element method for mechanics problems, Comput …

This review paper presents a methodological study on possible and existing meshfree
methods for solving the partial differential equations (PDEs) governing solid mechanics …

Transient responses and natural frequencies of sandwich beams with inhomogeneous
functionally graded (FG) core are investigated. To serve this purpose, we propose a novel …

This study conducts the first-known free vibration analysis of functionally graded carbon
nanotubes-reinforced (FG-CNTRC) shell structures using the meshfree radial point …
