The temperature-dependent mechanical properties of the plates are assumed to vary through thickness. The present solutions are derived using an element-free Galerkin (EFG) meshless method. Using the EFG solution method, the numerical results are presented and compared with those available in the literature. Results show that the foundation stiffness, temperature, and other parameters have a significant influence on the vibration response of functionally graded plates resting on elastic foundation. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.Element-free Galerkin methodFunctionally graded materialVibration analysisVibration Analysis of FGM Plates Resting on Elastic Foundation in Thermal Environment Using Element-Free Galerkin (EFG) Meshless Solution
