Stochastic isogeometric analysis for the linear stability assessment of plate structures using a Kriging enhanced Neural Network

Abstract The stability of functionally graded porous plates with graphene platelets reinforcement (FGP-GPLs) is investigated in this paper. Combining with a new metamodeling approach, namely the Kriging enhanced Neural Network, a stochastic isogeometric analysis (SIGA) framework is proposed for assessing the structural stability. The uncertainties of material properties of both FGP matrix and graphene platelets are considered in the form of random fields and variables. Karhunen-Loeve expansion based Nystrom method is applied to random field discretization. The Dagum function is adopted as a new kernel function to further improve the performance of the proposed approach. Statistical information including but not limited to statistical moments, probability density function (PDF), and cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the critical buckling load of the plate structure can be effectively estimated through a non-intrusive fashion. In order to illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed stochastic computational analysis, both theoretical and real-life engineering examples have been investigated in this study.
