Flexural analysis of FGM plate under uniform line load by using meshless method.

In present paper, functionally graded material plate under the uniformly distributed line load is considered for flexural analysis. The governing differential equation of the plate is obtained using energy principle. Multiquadric radial basic function based meshless method is applied for discreatization of the equation. The coding is developed in MATLAB to find out the results. Effect of gradation index, span to thickness ratio on deflection moments and stresses are carried out under uniform distributed line load. The present result are converge, new and may be used for validation in future.
