Free vibration of new type functionally graded materials pipe conveying fluid using differential quadrature method

In this article, the differential quadrature method (DQM) is used to study the free vibration of functionally graded (FG) thin annular sector plates. The material properties of the FG-plate are assumed to vary continuously through the thickness, according to the power-law distribution. The governing differential equations of motion are derived based on the classical plate theory and solved numerically using DQM. The natural frequencies of thin FG annular sector plates under various combinations of clamped, free, and simply supported boundary conditions are presented for the first time. To ensure the accuracy of the method, the natural frequencies of a pure metallic plate are calculated and compared with those existing in the literature for the homogeneous plate. In this case, the result shows very good agreement. For the FG-plates, the effects of boundary conditions, volume fraction exponent, and variation of Poisson's ratio on the free vibrational behaviour of the plate are studied.

In this paper, the free vibration of moderately thick annular sector plates made of functionally graded materials is studied using the Differential Quadrature Method (DQM). The material properties of the functionally graded plate are assumed to vary continuously through the thickness, according to a power-law distribution. The governing differential equations of motion are derived based on the First order Shear Deformation plate Theory (FSDT) and then solved numerically using DQM under different boundary conditions. The results for the isotropic plates which are derivable with this approach are presented and compared with the literature and they are in good agreement. The natural frequencies of the functionally graded moderately thick annular sector plates under various combinations of clamped, simple supported and free boundary conditions are presented for the first time. The effects of boundary conditions, sector angle, radius ratio, thickness to outer radius ratio, volume fraction exponent and variation of the Poisson’s ratio on the free vibration behavior of the plate are studied

Annular Plates

In this paper, free vibration of functionally graded annular plates on elastic foundations, based on the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, using state-space based differential quadrature method for different boundary conditions is investigated. The foundation is described by the Pasternak or two-parameter model. Assuming the material properties having an exponent-law variation along the thickness, a semi-analytical approach that makes use of state-space method in thickness direction and one-dimensional differential quadrature method in radial direction is used to obtain the vibration frequencies. Supposed state variables in the present method are different from what have been used for functionally graded annular plate so far. They are a combination of three displacement parameters and three stresses parameters. Numerical results are given to demonstrate the convergency and accuracy of the present method. In addition, the influences of the Winkler and shearing layer elastic coefficients of the foundations and some parameters are also investigated.
