Nonlinear vibration and dynamic buckling of eccentrically oblique stiffened FGM plates resting on elastic foundations in thermal environment

This paper presents a semi-analytical approach to investigate the nonlinear dynamic response and vibration of eccentrically oblique stiffened functionally graded plate resting on elastic foundation. The Lekhnitskii's smeared stiffener technique is improved by using a transformation technique for oblique stiffeners. Governing equations are solved by classical shell theory, Galerkin method, stress function with temperature-dependent material effects. The results show the influences of geometrical parameters, material properties, imperfection, the elastic foundations, eccentrically oblique stiffeners, mechanical loads and temperature on the nonlinear dynamic response and nonlinear vibration of plates. The numerical results in this paper are compared with the results reported in other reports.
