Özet:

Nonlinear free vibration of stiffened functionally graded plates is presented by using the finite element method based on the new C0 third-order shear deformation theory. The material properties are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction by a power-law distribution. Based on the Von Karman theory and the third-order shear deformation theory, the nonlinear governing equations of motion are derived from the Hamilton’s principle. An iterative procedure based on the Newton-Raphson method is employed in computing the natural frequencies and mode shape. The comparison between these solutions and the other available ones suggests that this procedure is characterized by accuracy and efficiency.
