RESUMO

Abstract Free vibration responses of shear deformable functionally graded single/doubly curved panels under uniform, linear and nonlinear temperature fields are investigated in the present article. The micromechanical material model of functionally graded material is computed using Voigt model in conjunction with the power-law distribution to achieve the continuous gradation. The material properties are assumed to be the function of temperatures. The mid-plane kinematics of panel geometry is derived using the higher order shear deformation theory. The governing equation of the vibrated panel is obtained using Hamilton's principle. The desired solutions of free vibrated functionally graded shells are computed numerically using the suitable finite element steps. The convergence behaviour of the numerical results has been checked and validated by comparing the responses with that to available published literatura. The applicability of the proposed model has been highlighted by solving various numerical examples for different material and geometrical parameters and temperature fields.
