Abstract

The nonlinear dynamic response of magnetoelectroelastic (MEE) functionally graded plates (MEEFG) subjected to blast loads and operating in a temperature environment is examined in this study. The goal of this research is to investigate the impact of pyrocoupling along with the blast loads on the coupled nonlinear behavior of smart MEEFG plates. The material properties of MEEFG plates are calculated using the well-known modified power law. The kinematics of the plate is supposed to follow Reddy's higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). Also, von-Karman's equations are used to bring nonlinearity into the model. The blast loads are calculated using an exponential function and are expected to be dispersed evenly across the plate's surface. The principle of virtual work is used to develop the governing equations using finite element (FE) methods, which is then solved using the direct iterative technique. The numerical examples are offered to show how gradient patterns, gradient index, and blast loading parameters affect the nonlinear dynamic response.
