Abstract
We present the thermal buckling analysis of functionally graded rectangular plates subjected to partial heating in a plane and uniform
temperature rise through its thickness. The plate is simply supported for out-of-plane deformation and perfectly clamped for in-plane
deformation. It is assumed that the functionally graded material properties such as the coefcient of linear thermal expansion and
Youngs modulus are changed individually in the thickness direction of the plate with the power law, while Poissons ratio is assumed to
be constant. Analytical developments consist of two stages. First, the nonuniform in-plane resultant forces are determined by solving a
plane thermoelastic problem. Then the critical buckling temperatures of the plates with the predetermined resultant forces are calculated
as the generalized eigenvalue problem which is constructed by using the Galerkin method. Finally, the effects of material inhomogeneity,
aspect ratio, and heated region on the critical buckling temperatures are examined.

1. Introduction
Inhomogeneous materials such as functionally graded
materials (FGMs) have been developed and collected for
technical interests as new functional and intelligent
materials [1] that are mainly used as heat-resistant
materials. These are developed to be used as thin-walled
members of engineering structures such as a plate or shell
in the area of aircrafts, nuclear plants and micro-electromechanical systems. In many of applications, such thinwalled members are subjected to thermal loads, which may
cause thermal buckling [2,3]. The thermoelastic stability of
thin-walled members is of importance in a safety design
and in development of energy absorbing structures.
The nonuniformity of temperature eld in a plane of the
plate is commonly observed. For example, the area of
aeronautics hypersonic aircrafts are subjected to severe
aerodynamic heating during ights. The thin plates used in

the aircraft are usually fastened to the cooling substructures that function as heat sinks because of less heating.
Thus, the temperature distribution over the plates will not
be uniform [46] even under the uniform heat ux. On the
other hand, laser beam heating produces more localized
temperature distribution on the surface of the catalyst plate
in the area of materials processing [7,8]. The plate has
nonuniform in-plane resultant forces when its temperature
distribution is nonuniform or localized one thereby causing
compressive in-plane stresses in some region of the plate or
tensile stresses elsewhere. It buckles at certain negative and
positive critical buckling temperature under the prescribed
mechanical boundary condition [911].
Many papers have been published on the thermal
buckling of functionally graded plates due to uniform inplane temperature eld [1222]. To our knowledge,
however, there has not been any investigation of the effect
of nonuniform in-plane temperature distribution on the
thermal buckling of functionally graded plates. In this
paper, we analyze the thermal buckling of functionally
graded rectangular plates subjected to partial heating in a

The fundamental equations given by Eqs. (4) and (5) are
the same forms as those of a homogeneous plate, excepting
the slightly different denitions in Eqs. (7)(10), (12).
Giving the inhomogeneity parameters zero in Eq. (1), these
equations are completely reduced to those of a homogeneous plate. Since the fundamental equations are
uncoupled, we can separately solve them. Thus, analytical
developments consist of two stages. In the next section, we
rst determine the nonuniform in-plane resultant forces by
solving Eq. (4). Then we calculate the critical buckling
temperatures with the predetermined resultant forces.
3. Analytical developments
We now consider the thermal buckling problem that the
plate is partially heated on its central rectangular region
characterized by 2x 0 2y0 as shown in Fig. 2. The heated
region is assumed to be doubly symmetrical about the plate

are real because the coefcient matrices A; B are real

solve Eq. (40) to obtain eigenvalues and then seek the
positive minimum eigenvalue as the critical buckling

may be due to relative relation between
the heated region and the plate dimension because of the
following discussion: the heated region and the plate
dimension imply the magnitude of compressive force and
the tensile force from the results in Section 4.1, respectively. In the previous work [17], we have considered the
case of uniform temperature distribution in a
plane, in which the effect of the plate dimension is only
visible, and have found that the critical buckling
temperature decreases with increasing aspect ratio. On
the other hand, the effect of the heated region on the
critical buckling temperature is shown in Fig. 8. This is the
case where the aspect ratio is kept constant b 1
while varying the size of heated region with L from 0.2
to 0.8. From this gure, it is found that the critical
buckling temperature decreases with increasing the side L.
