Analysis of Thermal Deformations of FGM Thin Plates

Article Preview

Abstract:

The governing equation of thermoelastic FGM thin plates was obtained by degenerating the governing equation of thermoviscoelastic FGM thin plates. A Navier solution of a simply supported FGM rectangular plate under thermal loads was get. Based on the Navier solution, the influence of considering and ignoring mid-plane stain, due to the inhomogeneous property of the functionally graded materials, on the maximal deflection and thermal stress of the functionally graded materials thin plate is investigated.
