Zenkour, zenkour@ Received 7 April 2009; Revised 15 October 2009; Accepted 25 November 2009 Recommended by Mehrdad Massoudi The quasistatic bending response is presented for a simply supported functionally graded rectangular plate subjected to a through-the-thickness temperature field under the effect of various theories of generalized thermoelasticity, namely, classical dynamical coupled theory, Lord and Shulman’s theory with one relaxation time, and Green and Lindsay’s theory with two relaxation times. The generalized shear deformation theory obtained by the first author is used. Material properties of the plate are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction according to a simple exponential law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. The numerical illustrations concern quasistatic bending response of functionally graded square plates with two constituent materials are studied using the different theories of generalized thermoelasticity Copyright q 2009 A.
