Description
Summary:	Finite element method is used to investigate the free vibration and harmonic analysis of functionally graded plates. The material properties of the plates are assumed to vary continuously through their thickness direction according to a power-law distribution of the volume fractions of the plate constituents. The four noded shell 181 elements are used to analyse the functionally graded plates. The aim is to fill the void in the available literature with respect to the free vibration results of Functionally Graded plates. Convergence and Comparison studies with respect to the number of nodes has been carried out using FEM. The natural frequency, mode shape and harmonic analysis of FG plate has been determined using finite element package ANSYS.
