Abstract
The interest of this work is the analysis of the effect of porosity on the nonlinear thermal stability response of power law functionally graded beam with various boundary conditions. The modelling was done according to the Euler-Bernoulli beam model where the distribution of material properties is imitated polynomial function. The thermal loads are assumed to be not only uniform but linear as well non-linear and the temperature rises through the thickness direction. The effects of the porosity parameter, slenderness ratio and power law index on the thermal buckling of P-FG beam are discussed.
