▎ 摘　　要

Present study proposes a nonlinear formulation to study the large amplitude free vibration of composite laminated plates reinforced by graphene sheets. Volume fraction of graphene sheets as reinforcements may be different in the layers. Material properties of the constituents are assumed to be temperature dependent. Properties of the composite media are obtained using a refined Halpin-Tsai approach where the auxiliary parameters are included into the formulation to capture the size dependency of the nanocomposite media. With the aid of third order shear deformation plate theory and the von Karman type of kinematic assumptions, the basic governing equations of the plate are established. Afterwards, a non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) based isogeometric finite element method is used to study the large amplitude free vibration response of the graphene reinforced composite plates in thermal environment. Large amplitude frequencies as a function of centre point deflection are provided for different functionally graded patterns, aspect ratios, side to thickness ratios and boundary conditions (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
