• Resumen

  • This article considers a bidirectional functionally graded (BDFG) beam with various distributions of volume fraction. The impact of these distributions on the buckling and bending response of BDFG beam with general boundary conditions is investigated via a quasi-3D solution. It is assumed that the beam is exposed to a set of in-plane varying compressive loads and there mechanical characteristics change in both directions. Also, the BDFG beam is considered to be exposed different external mechanical loads. Hamilton’s principle is employed to derive the governing equations, which are then solved using analytical solution to obtain buckling and bending characteristics. The precision of the current formulation is investigated via a comparison with available data in literature. Some numerical results are presented and discussed to assess the effect of different parameters such type of volume fraction, boundary condition, varying load, and beam geometry on the buckling and bending of BDFG beam.
