The static bending and buckling behaviors of bi-directional functionally graded (BFG) plates
with porosity are investigated in this paper. An improved first-order shear deformation theory …

This article investigates the wave propagation analysis of the imperfect functionally graded
(FG) sandwich plates based on a novel simple four-variable integral quasi-3D higher-order …

Earthquake Resistant Design Philosophy seeks (a) no damage,(b) no significant structural
damage, and (c) significant structural damage but no collapse of normal buildings, under …

Elastic bending of imperfect functionally graded sandwich plates (FGSPs) laying on the
Winkler-Pasternak foundation and subjected to sinusoidal loads is analyzed. The analyses …

In the present work, a simple and refined shear deformation theory is used to analyze the
effect of visco-elastic foundation on the buckling response of exponentially-gradient …

In this investigation, an improved integral trigonometric shear deformation theory is
employed to examine the vibrational behavior of the functionally graded (FG) sandwich …

This paper investigates the mechanical behavior of full-scale offshore fish cages under
hydrodynamic loads. To simulate different cases, different materials were used in the fish …

In this paper, frictionless contact problem for a functionally graded (FG) layer is considered.
The FG layer is subjected to load with a rigid punch and the FG layer is bonded on a rigid …
