Abstract

The generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method is used to study the thermal vibration of thick functionally graded material (FGM) circular cylindrical shells. The nonlinear coefficient effect of third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) model of displacements on the thermal equations of motion is considered. The parametric effects of FGM power law index and environment temperature on the time responses of stresses and displacements are considered. The linear varied effect of shear correction coefficients on the calculation of stiffness integration is also considered. The simply homogeneous equation is used to find the values of vibration frequency, also the dynamic GDQ discrete equation in matrix form are used to find the values of time response and transient response for the thick FGM circular cylindrical shells.
