    Free vibration and static analysis of functionally graded skew magneto-electro-elastic plate
    (Techno-Press, 2018) Kiran, M.C.; Kattimani, S.
    This article presents a finite element (FE) model to assess the free vibration and static response of a functionally graded skew magneto-electro-elastic (FGSMEE) plate. Through the thickness material grading of FGSMEE plate is achieved using power law distribution. The coupled constitutive equations along with the total potential energy approach are used to develop the FE model of FGSMEE plate. The transformation matrix is utilized in bringing out the element matrix corresponding to the global axis to a local axis along the skew edges to specify proper boundary conditions. The effect of skew angle on the natural frequency of an FGSMEE plate is analysed. Further, the study includes the evaluation of the static behavior of FGSMEEplate for various skew angles.The influence of skew angle on the primary quantities such as displacements, electric potential, and magnetic potential, and secondary quantities such as stresses, electric displacement and magnetic induction is studied indetail. In addition, the effect of power-law gradient, thickness ratio, boundary conditions and aspect ratio on the free vibration and static response characteristics of FGSMEE plate has been investigated. © 2018 Techno-Press, Ltd.

    Nonlinear free vibration and transient responses of porous functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic plates
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Sh, E.L.; Kattimani, S.; Mahesh, M.
    The geometrically nonlinear free vibration and transient response of porous functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic (PFG-MEE) plates are studied based on the first-order shear deformation (FSDT) theory, von Karman's nonlinear strain–displacement relations along with modified power law. With Hamilton's theory, the coupled equations of motion are obtained and analyzed by adapting finite element methods (FEM). Moreover, using Newmark's, Picard's, and Newton–Raphson methods, a porous FG-MEE plate's nonlinear and transient response is analyzed using MATLAB software. After validating the present study, the influence of porosity distribution, porosity index, boundary conditions, aspect ratios, and thickness to length ratios on the nonlinear frequency ratio and nonlinear transient response of porous FG-MEE plate is investigated. It is revealed that geometric parameters, porosity index, boundary conditions, and form of porosity distribution significantly influence the nonlinear frequency ratio and nonlinear transient deflections of porous FG-MEE plates. © 2021, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology.

    Geometrically Nonlinear Study of Functionally Graded Saturated Porous Plates Based on Re¯ned Shear Deformation Plate Theory and Biot's Theory
    (World Scientific, 2023) Kumar, H.S.N.; Kattimani, S.; Marques, F.D.; Nguyen, T.; Shariati, M.
    This research presents the geometrically nonlinear investigation of functionally graded saturated porous material (FGSPM) plate under undrained conditions. In conjunction with von Karman's nonlinearity, the re¯ned shear deformation plate theory (RSDPT) is implemented to model the FGSPM plate. The e®ective material characteristics of the saturated porous plate change constantly in the thickness direction. The pores of the saturated porous plate are examined in °uid-¯lled conditions. Thus, the constitutive equations are established using Biot's linear poroelasticity theory. The governing equations are developed by combining a nonlinear ¯nite element technique with Hamilton's principle. Then, the direct iterative approach is utilized to extract the geometrically nonlinear numerical results. The emphasis is placed on exploring the e®ects of numerous parameters such as Skempton coe±cient, volume fraction grading index, porosity volume index, porosity distributions, and boundary conditions during the extensive numerical analyses on the linear frequency, large amplitude frequencies, and nonlinear central de°ections of the FGSPM plate. It is evident from the investigation that saturated °uid in the pores substantially impacts the nonlinear de°ection and vibration behavior of the FGSPM plate. © World Scientic Publishing Company.
