In this study, free and forced vibration behaviour of viscoelastic porous functionally graded (VPFG) plates resting on elastic foundations are investigated. Differential equations are obtained via higher order shear deformation theory. Equations of motion are obtained through energy formulations and Hamilton's principle. Navier's method based on double Fourier series is employed for the solution. Damping effect is implemented into the analysis by means of Kelvin and linear standard viscoelastic models. Viscoelastic material properties are used instead of elastic properties by means of the correspondence principle. Displacements of the plates are determined in Laplace domain and transformed into time domain by using Durbin's Modified Inverse Laplace transform method. The proposed algorithm's accuracy is validated through free and damped vibration analyses on VPFG plate, with results compared to existing studies in the literature. The study examines the influence of viscoelastic damping parameters, porosity volume fraction indexes, foundation characteristics, porosity distribution patterns and material property variations on the damped forced vibration response.
