Abstract
In this paper, the mechanical properties of graphene reinforced composite functional gradient (GRC-FG) plates under plane load conditions are studied in depth. The plate consists of a segmented patterned graphene reinforcement layer and the mechanical properties of the composite are simulated by extending the Halpin-Tsai micromechanical model. The governing equations are derived from Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) and the Hamiltonian principle. For the study of two opposite side simple supports and the solution of the coupled motion equation, we use state space eigenvectors to solve. The effects of geometric features and boundary conditions on material properties were investigated.
