Dynamic analysis of stiffened functionally graded composite plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes subjected to moving mass using a new four - variable refined plate theory and FEM

In this paper, a new four - variable refined plate theory proposed by the authors themselves for dynamic analysis of stiffened functionally graded composite plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes (SFG-CNTRC) subjected to moving mass is researched developed. The geometrical modeling and governing equations of the system are obtained using the finite element method (FEM).
