Abstract (EN): This paper addresses the static deformations analysis of functionally graded plates by collocation with radial basis functions, according to a sinusoidal shear deformation formulation for plates. The present plate theory approach accounts for through-the-thickness deformations. The equations of motion and the boundary conditions are obtained by the Carrera's Unified Formulation, and further interpolated by collocation with radial basis functions.
