Abstract

Present study deals with large displacement transient dynamic response of truncated conical panels made of Porous Functionally Graded Materials (P-FGMs) using Generalized Differential Quadrature (GDQ) method. In this study, geometric non-linearity is taken into consideration through Green-Lagrange non-linear strain-displacement relations. First order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is utilized to take transverse shear effects into account. Virtual work principle is used to derive the equation of motion. The solution methodology utilizes GDQ method for spatial discretization of the variables. Newmark average acceleration method is implemented in time integration. Effects of different types of porosity distribution, porosity ratio and conical parameters on non-linear transient behavior of truncated conical panels are investigated for functionally graded material made of Zirconia/Aluminum (ZrO2/Al) considering various volume fraction coefficients.
