Abstract
This paper investigates the free vibration and buckling behaviors of functionally graded graphene platelets (FG-GPLs) reinforced porous beam under axially variable loads. The internal pores and GPLs are either uniformly or non-uniformly distributed along the thickness direction. Halpin–Tsai micromechanics model is used to calculate the effective elastic modulus. The variation of Poisson’s ratio along the thickness and the relation between mass density and porosity coefficients are determined using mechanical properties of closed-cell solid under the Gaussian random scheme. The equilibrium equations are derived by Hamilton’s principles, and critical buckling load and dimensionless natural frequency are determined by Ritz formulation. Results revealed that buckling and free vibration behavior of the porous FG-GPL beam are influenced by the GPLs grading pattern and the type of axially varying load. Furthermore, the grading pattern of porosity has more influence on the buckling behavior compared to the free vibration behavior. It is also observed that buckling mode and the fundamental vibration mode of the porous FG-GPL are influenced by the loading conditions and remain unaffected by the grading pattern of porosities and GPLs.
