Abstract
The functionally graded material (FGM) is increasingly widely applied in many engineering fields such as civil construction, aerospace, nuclear technology, and so on. Therefore, studying the mechanical behaviour of FGM sandwich structures is of interest to many domestic and foreign scientists. The main goal of this paper is to use the quadrilateral (Q4) element based on Shi’s third-order shear deformation plate theory (TSDT) for the static analysis of FGM sandwich plates. The proposed element with seven degrees of freedom (DOFs) per node is based on combining the Lagrange interpolations and the Hermit interpolations for establishing the governing equation of the FGM sandwich plate. This combination helps satisfy the zero-shear stress condition at the top and bottom surfaces of the plate. The accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified through comparative examples. Then, the effects of geometrical dimensions and material properties on the static response of FGM sandwich plates are studied in detailReferences
