Abstract
In the present study, the natural frequencies of rectangular plates made of multi-directional functionally graded materials on an elastic substrate was investigated for the first time. The mechanical properties of the material in the examined plate can be changed in all three coordinate directions according to a power law function. Equations of motion are written according to the three-dimensional theory of elasticity and then discretized using the method of Generalized Differential Quadratics. By comparing the results of several examples in the published articles, the validity of the method and the solution was examined, indicating the high accuracy of the method used. The influence of a change in direction on the mechanical properties is examined using several examples and the results are examined. In addition, the effects of plate thickness, plate dimension ratio and the effects of elastic foundation parameters for different boundary conditions were investigated and presented in the form of diagrams. The results show that the direction of change in material properties can have a significant effect on the natural frequency of the plate.
