The bifurcation and chaos of a clamped circular functionally graded plate is investigated. Considered the geometrically nonlinear relations and the temperature-dependent properties of the materials, the nonlinear partial differential equations of FGM plate subjected to transverse harmonic excitation and thermal load are derived. The Duffing nonlinear forced vibration equation is deduced by using Galerkin method and a multiscale method is used to obtain the bifurcation equation. According to singularity theory, the universal unfolding problem of the bifurcation equation is studied and the bifurcation diagrams are plotted under some conditions for unfolding parameters. Numerical simulation of the dynamic bifurcations of the FGM plate is carried out. The influence of the period doubling bifurcation and chaotic motion with the change of an external excitation are discussed.
