A Simple-FSDT-Based Isogeometric Method for Piezoelectric Functionally Graded Plates

An efficient isogeometric analysis method (IGA) based on a simple first-order shear deformation theory is presented to study free vibration, static bending response, dynamic response, and active control of functionally graded plates (FGPs) integrated with piezoelectric layers. Based on the neutral surface, isogeometric finite element motion equations of piezoelectric functionally graded plates (PFGPs) are derived using the linear piezoelectric...
