Dynamic response of functionally graded plate under harmonic load with variable gradient parameters

This article used the strip element method to study the dynamics problems of the functionally graded plate with variable gradient parameters under the harmonic loads. The dynamic model of the functionally graded plate is established by using the strip element method, the rationality and accuracy of the theoretical results are verified by finite element method, and the displacement response under different gradient parameters is also calculated. The results show that under the different gradient parameters, the displacement varies harmonically with time, and with the increase of gradient parameters, the fluctuation period of displacement with time increases continuously, and the displacement peak also gradually increases. The displacement along the thickness direction also shows the harmonic form. Through comparison, it is found that the gradient parameters have a greater impact on the dynamic response for the functionally graded plate; with the increase in the gradient parameters, the displacement response also increases, but the displacement response trend slows down.
