Abstract: The technical study of the presented manuscript is to investigate the thermal vibration of thick functionally graded material (FGM) conical shells with fully-homogeneous equations coupled in third-order shear-deformation theory (TSDT). The method in the generalized-differential quadrature (GDQ) approach is used to calculate the dynamic numerical data of FGM conical shells subjected to thermal-vibration only. Some parametric effects of minor middle-surface radius, environment temperature, and FGM power-law index on thermal stress and displacement of thick FGM conical shells are investigated with the frequency approach of the fully homogeneous equation. The novelties and main contributions of the present paper are that the thermal vibration GDQ study is original in thick FGM conical shells and contains some contributions to science and physics, by using the higher-order analysis of the TSDT displacement model and GDQ numerical results to obtain more accurate data in the thermal analyses of displacements and stresses for the thick FGM conical shells.
