Thermoelastic nonlinear frequency analysis of CNT reinforced functionally graded sandwich structure

Buckling and postbuckling of CNT-reinforced composite sandwich cylindrical panels subjected to axial compression in thermal environments

“…and α m have been given in many previous works on CNTRC structures, for examples [5,[10][11][12][13][14][15][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33], and are omitted here for the sake of brevity.…”

“…Due to advanced characteristics, sandwich structures are widely used in various fields. Vibration response of CNTRC sandwich plates has been addressed in works [29][30][31] using some different methods. Shen and Zhu [32] made use of a perturbation technique to analyze postbuckling behavior of CNTRC sandwich plates under compressive and thermal loads.…”

“…Thermal postbuckling analysis for CNTRC sandwich plates has been carried out by Kiani [33] utilizing Chebyshev-Ritz method. In aforementioned works [29][30][31][32][33], sandwich plates are constructed from isotropic homogeneous core layer and CNTRC face sheets. Beside this model of CNTRC sandwich plate, another model of sandwich plate with CNTRC core layer and homogeneous face sheets has been suggested in recent works of Long and Tung [34,35].…”

Nonlinear Vibrations of Laminated Cross-Ply Composite Cantilever Plate in Subsonic Air Flow

“…e nonlinear vibrations of laminated composite spherical shell panels were also entirely investigated by Mahapatra et al [5][6][7][8][9]. e vibration, bending, and buckling behaviors about the functionally graded sandwich structure have been investigated by Mehar et al [10][11][12][13] and Kar and Panda [14][15][16]. A third-order theory which accounted for a cubic variation of the in-plane displacements through the plate thickness was derived by Librescu and Reddy [17].…”

Thermomechanical nonlinear stability of pressure-loaded CNT-reinforced composite doubly curved panels resting on elastic foundations

“…Fantuzzi et al [13] used generalized di erential quadrature method to analyze free vibration of arbitrarily shaped functionally graded carbon nanotubereinforced plates. Basing on a higher order shear deformation theory and nite element method, Mehar et al [14,15] studied nonlinear vibration of FG-CNTRC single layer and sandwich plates. Nonlinear bending analysis of thick FG-CNTRC plates under the combined thermo-mechanical load has been carried out in work of Mehar and Panda [16].…”
