This paper investigates the static bending and buckling behaviors of bi-directional functionally graded (BFG) plates with porosity. An improved first-order shear deformation theory and a new four-node quadrilateral plate element IMQ4 are developed for analysis. New numerical results on the flexural and buckling behaviors of BFG plates are obtained through a deep parametric study.
The static bending and buckling behaviors of bi-directional functionally graded (BFG) plates with porosity are investigated in this paper. An improved first-order shear deformation theory with an assuming parabolic distribution shear stresses is developed to describe the displacement, strain, and stress fields of the plates. The significant novelty of the proposed theory is that the transverse shear stresses equal to zero at two free surfaces of the BFG plates. Therefore, no shear correction factor is required as in other first-order shear deformation theory. A four-node quadrilateral plate element (IMQ4) is developed based on the improved first-order shear deformation theory, mixed finite element method (FEM) and Hamilton's principle for analysis of BFG plates. Several comparison studies are provided to demonstrate the precision and robustness of the proposed plate element IMQ4. Then the proposed plate element, IMQ4, is employed to analyze the bending and buckling responses of the BFG plates. Some new numerical results on the flexural and buckling behaviors of BFG plates are achieved via a deep parametric study.
