proposal to investigate the nonlinear dynamic response of imperfect symmetric thin sigmoidfunctionally graded material (S-FGM) plate resting on an elastic foundation and subjected to mechanical loads The formulations use classical plate theory taking into account geometrical nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection of the S-FGM plate and stress function The volume fractions of metal and ceramic are applied by sigmoid-law distribution (S-FGM) with metal-ceramic-metal layers The nonlinear equations are solved by the Runge-Kutta and Bubnov-Galerkin methods using stress function The obtained results show the effects of material, imperfection and elastic foundations on the dynamical response of S-FGM plate Keywords Classical plate theory (CPT), elastic foundation, imperfection, nonlinear dynamic response, thin S-FGM plate Introduction Functionally graded materials (FGMs), which microscopically are composites and made from a mixture of metal and ceramic constituents, have received considerable attention in recent years due to their high performance heat resistance capacity and excellent characteristics in comparison with conventional composites Therefore, FGMs have been chosen for use in temperature shielding structure components of aircraft, aerospace vehicles, nuclear plants and engineering structures in various industries As a result, many investigations have been carried out on the dynamics and vibration of FGM plates and shells One of the most popular FGM structures, which has been widely studied by using a simple power-law distribution (P-FGM) of the elastic modules varying with thickness, is a metal-ceramic composite structure An advantage of this is that the ceramic layer plays a similar role to the thermal resistance, whereas the metal layer will protect the mechanical deformation Recently, the static and dynamical properties of P-FGM have attracted the interest of the research community In this paper, we narrow our study on dynamical properties, and therefore just summarize the significant findings of the last few years Firstly, we should mention the findings of Zhao et al (2004), who studied the free vibration of a two-sided simply supported laminated cylindrical panel via the mesh-free kp-Ritz method This research has indeed provided us with the approximation calculation of the FGM panel In 2004, Vel and Batra also reported a three dimensional exact solution for the vibration of FGM rectangular plates Also in this year, Sofiyev and Schnack (2004) investigated the stability of functionally graded cylindrical shells under linearly Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Vietnam Received: 13 February 2013; accepted: 15 April 2013 Corresponding author: Nguyen Dinh Duc, Vietnam National University, 144 Xuan

loading and obtained the result for the stability of functionally graded truncated conical shells subjected to a periodic impulsive loading Sofiyev et al (2005) also published the result of the stability of P-FGM ceramic-metal cylindrical shells under a periodic axial impulsive loading Ferreira et al (2006) received natural frequencies of FGM plates with a meshless method Zhao et al (2006) has also developed the element-free kp-Ritz method (which was applied successfully to an FGM panel in 2004) to calculate the free vibration analysis of the complicated FGM structures, i.e conical shell panels It is not only the mechanical effects that have been investigated, the studies of the dynamical properties of P-FGM structures under the thermal and thermomechanical loads have also been a particular interest of many authors Liew et al (2006a, 2006b) studied the nonlinear vibration of a coating-FGM-substrate cylindrical panel subjected to a temperature gradient and dynamic stability of rotating cylindrical shells subjected to periodic axial loads Woo et al (2006) investigated the nonlinear free vibration behavior of functionally graded plates Kadoli and Ganesan (2006) studied the buckling and free vibration analysis of functionally graded cylindrical shells subjected to a temperature-specified boundary condition Wu et al (2006) also published their results on nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of functionally graded plates Sofiyev (2007) has considered the buckling of functionally graded truncated conical shells under dynamic axial loading Prakash et al (2007) studied the nonlinear axisymmetric dynamic buckling behavior of clamped functionally graded spherical caps In 2008, Darabi et al obtained the nonlinear analysis of dynamic stability for functionally graded cylindrical shells under periodic axial loading Matsunaga (2008) analyzed natural frequencies and buckling stresses of FGM plates using 2-D higherorder deformation theory Moreover, the P-FGM plate and shell structures under the complicated dynamic loads have recently been a hot topic in the research community Shariyat (2008a, 2008b) also obtained the dynamic thermal buckling for suddenly heated temperature-dependent FGM cylindrical shells under combined axial compression and external pressure as well as under thermoelectro-mechanical loads Allahverdizadeh et al (2008) studied nonlinear free vibration and nonlinear forced vibration for thin circular functionally graded plates Sofiyev (2009, 2011) investigated the vibration of freely supported FGM conical shells subjected to external pressure and clamped FGM conical shells under external loads Shen (2009) published a valuable book, Functionally Graded Materials, Nonlinear Analysis of Plates and Shells, in which the results about nonlinear vibration of shear deformable FGM plates are presented Zhang and Li (2010) studied the dynamic buckling of FGM truncated conical shells subjected to non-uniform normal impact load Ibrahim and Tawfik (2010) investigated limit-cycle oscillations of FGM plates subjected to aerodynamic and thermal loads Mohammad and Singh (2010) studied the dynamic response of P-FGM plates using first order shear deformation theory by finite element method Fakhari and Ohadi (2011) also investigated nonlinear vibration control of P-FGM plates with piezoelectric layers in a thermal environment using the finite element method Unlike the others, they have assumed that the material properties of P-FGM are temperaturedependent Mollarazi et al (2012) presented analysis of free vibration for FGM cylinders using a meshless method The dynamic stability of FGM skew thin plate subjected to a uniformly distributed tangential follower force has been investigated by Miao Ruan et al (2012) Najafov et al (2012) studied the vibration of axially compressed truncated conical shells with a functionally graded middle layer surrounded by elastic medium In order to increase the loading ability, a very good choice is often the stiffener Therefore, the research on the dynamics of stiffened FGM plates and shells has also been of interest Recently, Bich et al (2012) investigated nonlinear dynamical analysis of eccentrically stiffened functionally graded cylindrical panels using the classical shell theory Duc (2013) studied the nonlinear dynamic response of imperfect eccentrically stiffened FGM double curved shallow shells on an elastic foundation We have witnessed that dynamic analysis of P-FGM plates and shells has comparatively received a lot of attention over the last two decades However, it is not only the metal-ceramic and ceramic-metal of P-FGM mentioned above that displays high thermal resistance – in modern engineering and technology, there are also many structures that share similar properties In order to increase the adapting ability to a high temperature, structures with the top and bottom surfaces are made of ceramic and the core of the structure is made of metal (Duc and Cong, 2012) Moreover, FGM can be used with the top and bottom metallic surfaces together with the ceramic core to increase the strength and thermal resistance The sigmoid-FGM (S-FGM) plate considered in this paper with metal-ceramic-metal layers is an example of these structures This paper presents a first proposal to investigate the nonlinear dynamic response of imperfect symmetrical, thin S-FGM plates with metal-ceramic-metal layers on an elastic foundation using classical plate theory Numerical results for the dynamic response of the S-FGM plate are obtained by Bubnov-Galerkin

the dynamic response of the S-FGM plate are obtained by Rugge-Kutta method and stress function The obtained results show the effects of material, imperfection, elastic foundations and geometrical parameters on the dynamical response of S-FGM plates Thus it is obvious that the dynamic response of the considered S-FGM plate depends on many factors significantly: volume ratio N, elastic foundation, imperfection and geometrical parameters of the FGM plate Therefore, when we change these parameters, we can actively control the dynamic response of the S-FGM plate Funding This work was
