| Description | This cluster of papers focuses on the modeling and analysis of functionally graded plates, particularly in the context of composite materials reinforced with carbon nanotubes. The papers cover topics such as finite element method, vibration and buckling behavior, thermal effects, multilayered structures, and shear deformation theory. They also explore the mechanical properties and potential applications of functionally graded materials. |
