%A Hong Cong Pham %A Minh Anh Vu %A Dinh Duc Nguyen %J Journal of Thermal Stresses %T Nonlinear dynamic response of eccentrically stiffened FGM plate using Reddy’s TSDT in thermal environment %X The nonlinear dynamics of an eccentrically stiffened functionally graded material (ES-FGM) plates resting on the elastic Pasternak foundations subjected to mechanical and thermal loads is considered in this article. The plates are reinforced by outside stiffeners with temperature-dependent material properties in two cases: uniform temperature rise and through the thickness temperature gradient. Both stiffeners and plate are deformed under temperature. Using Reddy’s third-order shear deformation plate theory, stress function, Galerkin and fourth-order Runge–Kutta methods, the effects of material and geometrical properties, temperature-dependent material properties, elastic foundations, and stiffeners on the nonlinear dynamic response of the ES-FGM plate in thermal environments are studied and discussed. Some obtained results are validated by comparing with those in the literature. %N 6 %P 704-732 %V 40 %D 2017 %I Taylor & Francis %L SisLab2463
