Dynamic analysis of stiffened functionally graded composite plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes under blast loading

The paper "Dynamic analysis of stiffened functionally graded composite plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes under blast loading" presents a study of the geometrical nonlinear dynamic of stiffened functionally graded composite plates reinforced by carbon nanotubes (SFG-CNTRC) subjected to blast loading. The governing equations of the system are obtained using the Mindlin plate theory and von Karman geometric nonlinearity. Applying the Hamilton principle, equations of motion of a system are derived in the matrix form, and then the finite element method is used to obtain the discretized equations.
