Cover Story: We are researching the free vibration of functionally graded material (FGM) plates with complex shapes. We consider a two-parameter elastic foundation (Winkler and Pasternak) and two types of porosity distributions through the thickness: even and uneven. Our approach is based on the variational Ritz method, combined with R-functions theory, and has been tested on numerous problems. The efficiency of the proposed approach is demonstrated for FGM plates with complex shapes and various boundary conditions. We investigate the effects of different parameters on vibration characteristics, such as porosity, volume exponent, elastic foundation, types of FGM, and boundary conditions.
