    , Article 27th Congress of the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences 2010, ICAS 2010, 19 September 2010 through 24 September 2010, Nice ; Volume 3 , 2010 , Pages 2060-2068 ; 9781617820496 (ISBN) Dastoom Laatleyli, H ; Abedian, A ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    In this study the energy concept along with the classical plate theory (CPT), first and third order shear deformation theories (FSDT and TSDT) are used to predict the large deflection and through the thickness stresses of a FGM plate. For defining the volume fraction of the FGM constituent materials three different functions are considered; simple power-law (PFGM), exponential (E-FGM) and sigmoid (S_FGM) functions. Power-law and exponential functions are commonly used tocontrol the variations of properties of FGMs. However, with both functions, a stress concentration appears due to abruptchange of the volume fraction of the constituents. Therefore, a sigmoid FGM is used to define a new... 

    An analytical solution for nonlinear cylindrical bending of functionally graded plates

    , Article Thin-Walled Structures ; Volume 44, Issue 11 , 2006 , Pages 1129-1137 ; 02638231 (ISSN) Navazi, H. M ; Haddadpour, H ; Rasekh, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    In this paper, the nonlinear cylindrical bending of a functionally graded plate is studied. The material properties of the plate are assumed to be graded continuously in the direction of thickness. The variation of the material properties follows a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of constituents. The von Karman strains are used to construct the nonlinear equilibrium equations of the plates subjected to in-plane and transverse loadings. The governing equations are reduced to linear differential equation with nonlinear boundary conditions yielding a simple solution procedure. The results show that the functionally graded plates exhibit different behavior from...

    Abstract
    In this research it is aimed to have an investigation on the thermo-mechanical analysis of functionally graded skew plates. In order to analyze the behavior of the skew FGM plates, a constant pressure load as a mechanical load is distributed through the plate. Also the thermo-mechanical load is a combination of this mechanical load and a temperature gradient in upper and lower surface applied as in-phase . Various boundary conditions considered in analysis are combination of simply support and clamped edges including CCCS, CCSS, CCCC. The analysis are based on CPT and the Von-Karman theory is used in the solution. The graded materials are distributed through the thickness according to P-FGM...

    Abstract
    In this paper, the nonlinear aeroelastic behavior of functionally graded plates is studied in supersonic flow. For this purpose, the von Karman strains and piston theory have been employed to model structural nonlinearity and quasi-steady aerodynamic panel loading, respectively. The material properties of the plate are assumed to be graded continuously in the direction of thickness. The variation of the properties follows a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of constituents. The Hamilton's principle is used to construct the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations of motion. The derived equations are transformed into a set of coupled ordinary differential... 

    Simulation of sheet metal forming processes by presenting a bending-dependent inverse isogeometric methodology

    , Article International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology ; Volume 112, Issue 5-6 , 2021 , Pages 1389-1408 ; 02683768 (ISSN) Shamloofard, M ; Assempour, A ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Recently, eliminating the gap between design and formability analysis of sheet metal parts has been studied to simulate sheet metal stamping processes. In this regard, a transfer-based inverse isogeometric formulation has been proposed. This method has various advantages such as solving the governing equations in two-dimensional networks without any concern about the convergence; however, it neglects the bending effect which is a major contributor in die/punch profile radii. The present work aims to consider the bending effects by introducing a bending-dependent inverse isogeometric formulation. The developed model deals with the minimization of potential energy, deformation theory of... 

    Stability analysis of a fractional viscoelastic plate strip in supersonic flow under axial loading

    , Article Meccanica ; Volume 52, Issue 7 , 2017 , Pages 1495-1502 ; 00256455 (ISSN) Asgari, M ; Permoon, M. R ; Haddadpour, H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Springer Netherlands  2017
    Abstract
    The stability of a viscoelastic plate strip, subjected to an axial load with the Kelvin–Voigt fractional order constitutive relationship is studied. Based on the classical plate theory, the structural formulation of the plate is obtained by using the Newton’s second law and the aerodynamic force due to the fluid flow is evaluated by piston theory. The Galerkin method is employed to discretize the equation of motion into a set of ordinary differential equations. To determine the stability margin of plate the obtained set of ordinary differential equations are solved using the Laplace transform method. The effects of variation of the governing parameters such as axial force, retardation time,...

    Abstract
    In this paper, dynamic behavior and pull-in phenomenon of electrically actuated rectangular micro plates under the effect of squeeze-film damping and nonlinear electrostatic force is studied. Finite element method is implemented in order to drive weak formulations of linear and nonlinear micro plate equations of motion based on classical plate theory (CPT) (for thin microplates with moderate nonlinearity) and squeeze-film damping based on Reynolds nonlinear equation. Finally, an efficient reduced-order model contingent on singular value decomposition method (SVD) is used to study dynamic pull-in phenomenon. This model is constructed by the global basis functions achieved from a few runs of...

    Abstract
    This paper investigates the dynamic pull-in behavior of microplates actuated by a suddenly applied electrostatic force. Electrostatic, elastic and fluid domains are involved in modeling. First-order shear deformation plate theory and classical plate theory are used to model the geometrically nonlinear microplates. The equations of motion are descritized by the finite element method. The effects of nonlinearity, fluid pressure, initial stress and different geometric parameters on dynamic behavior are examined. In addition, the influences of initial stress and actuation voltage on oscillatory behavior of microplates are evaluated. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved

    , Article Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology ; Volume 23, Issue 8 , 2009 , Pages 2008-2021 ; 1738494X (ISSN) Mehrabadi, S. J ; Kargarnovin, M. H ; Najafizadeh, M. M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Based on classical plate theory (CLPT), free vibration analysis of a circular plate composed of functionally graded material (FGM) with its upper and lower surfaces bounded by two piezoelectric layers was performed. Assuming that the material properties vary in a power law manner within the thickness of the plate the governing differential equations are derived. The distribution of electric potential along the thickness direction in piezoelectric layers is considered to vary quadratically such that the Maxwell static electricity equation is satisfied. Then these equations are solved analytically for two different boundary conditions, namely clamped and simply supported edges. The validity of...

    Abstract
    In this paper, the vibration of a moderately thick plate to a moving mass is investigated. Pasternak foundation with a variable subgrade modulus is considered to tackle the shortcomings of Winkler model, and an analytical-numerical solution is proposed based on the eigenfunction expansion method. Parametric studies by using both CPT (Classical Plate Theory) and FSDT (First-Order Shear Deformation Plate Theory) are carried out, and, the differences between them are also highlighted. The obtained results reveal that utilizing FSDT without considering the rotary inertia leads to a smaller deflection in comparison with CPT pertaining to a thin plate, while it demonstrates a greater response for...

    Abstract
    The problem of nonlinear aeroelasticity of a general laminated composite plate in supersonic air flow is examined. The classical plate theory along with the von-Karman nonlinear strains is used for structural modeling, and linear piston theory is used for aerodynamic modeling. The coupled partial differential equations of motion are derived by use of Hamilton's principle and Galerkin's method is used to reduce the governing equations to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations in time, which are then solved by a direct numerical integration method. Effects of in-plane force, static pressure differential, fiber orientation and aerodynamic damping on the nonlinear aeroelastic...
