The present article deals with flexural and vibration response of functionally graded plates with porosity. The basic formulation is based on the recently developed non-polynomial higher-order shear and normal deformation theory by the authors'. The present theory contains only four unknowns and also accommodate the thickness stretching effect. The effective material properties at each point are determined by two micromechanics models (Voigt and Mori-Tanaka scheme). The governing equations for FGM plates are derived using variational approach. Results have been obtained by employing a C-0 continuous isoparametric Lagrangian finite element with eight degrees of freedom per node. Convergence and comparative study with the reported results in the literature, confirm the accuracy and efficiency of the present model and finite element formulation. The influence of the porosity, various boundary conditions, geometrical configuration and micromechanics models on the flexural and vibration behavior of FGM plates is examined.
