Abstract: Elastic solutions of a differential system of vibrational responses of a bidirectional porous functionally graded plate (BPFG) are described by employing high-order normal and shear deformation theory, in the present study. Natural frequency values are computed for the plates with simply supported boundary conditions and taking into consideration the thickness stretching effect. Grading of the effective material property for the BPFG plate is defined according to a power-law distribution. Navier’s approach is applied to determine the governing differential equations solution of the studied model derived by Hamilton’s principle. To confirm the reliability of the solution and the model accuracy, a comparison study with various studies that are presented in the literature is carried out. Numerical illustrations are presented to discuss the influences of the plate geometry, the porosity, the volume fraction distribution, and the nonlocality on the vibration behaviors of the model. The dynamic responses of unidirectional and bidirectional porous functionally graded nanoplates are analyzed in detail, employing two parametric numerical examples. Numerical results show the sensitivity of frequencies to the studied parametric factors and their dependence on porosity and nonlocality coefficients. Frequencies of BPFG with uneven/even distribution porosity decrease when increasing the transverse and axial power-law indexes ( P ≠ 0 ), and the same effect appears when increasing the nonlocal parameter.
