Abstract

In this paper, employing the limit analysis theorem, critical loading on functionally graded (FG) circular plate with simply supported boundary conditions and subjected to an arbitrary rotationally symmetric loading is determined. The material behavior follows a rigid-perfectly plastic model and yielding obeys the von-Mises criterion. In the homogeneous case, the highly nonlinear ordinary differential equation governing the problem is analytically solved using a variational iteration method. In other cases, numerical results are reported. Finally, the results are compared with those of the FG plate with Tresca yield criterion and also in the homogeneous case with those of employing the von-Mises yield criterion. A good correspondence is observed between the calculated results and those available in the literature.
