Abstract
In this study, we present a numerical solution for geometrically nonlinear dynamic analysis of functionally graded material rectangular plates excited to a moving load based on first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) for the first time. To derive the governing equations of motion, Hamilton’s principle, nonlinear Von Karman assumptions and FSDT are used. Finally, the governing equations of motion are solved by employing the generalized differential quadratic method as a numerical solution. Natural frequencies, dynamic bending behavior and stresses of the plate for linear and nonlinear type of geometrically strain–displacement relations and different factors, including the magnitude and velocity of moving load, length ratio, power law exponent and various edge conditions are obtained and compared. Article highlights: Developing generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) solution based on FSDT for dynamic analysis of FGM plate excited by a moving load for the first time. Comparison of linear and nonlinear dynamic response of plate by considering Von-Karman assumption. Observing considerable difference between linear and nonlinear results
