The integration of such simulation tools into the teaching process as an assisting tool can be an additional factor to contribute for a successful competences achievement on this subject. The present case study is focused on the deflection analysis of a functionally graded particulate composite plate submitted to a user-defined transverse loading.engFunctionally graded materialsHomogenization methodPlate behavior educational simulatorSymbolic computationFunctionally graded particulate composite plates: a dydactic case studyconference object10.1109/EXPAT.2015.7463253
