چکیده
Abstract Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are a means to remove discrete material interfaces which lead high local stress concentrations, such as the tungsten–copper (W–Cu) interface of current ITER monoblock design. This paper employs adjoint-based optimization methods identify highest potential reduction stresses that could be reached with these materials, while ensuring temperature does not exceed operational window. The cheap sensitivity evaluation inherent adjoint approach enables detailed 3D distribution. Furthermore, novel method based on an augmented Lagrangian formulation is proposed allows accurate treatment window constraints. and modelled by steady heat conduction Navier’s equation, respectively. We compare results different formulations, cost functions von Mises corresponding yield criterion considering values free temperature. To assess performance under off-design conditions, two optimized designs were chosen compared flat tile (FT) design, consists copper block protected tungsten layer top. factor 2–4 decrease in maximal near original W–Cu FT design 10 measure cooling duct. Under they realized 2–10 upper part monoblock. confirms numerically FGMs can significant improvements. Finally, inclusion operation constraints leads 30–55 vol% W unconstrained cases, thus profoundly influencing final was found have comparably weaker influence differences 5–30 W.

متن کاملSample-based Design of Functionally Graded Material Structures
Spatial variation of material structures is a principal mechanism for creating and controlling spatially varying material properties in nature and engineering. While the spatially varying homogenized properties can be represented by scalar and vector fields on the macroscopic scale, explicit microscopic structures of constituent phases are required to facilitate the visualization, analysis and ...

In this paper, the plates made of functionally graded material (FGM) with and without a crack are numerically simulated, employing the finite element method (FEM). The material property variations are defined to be fully continuous; therefore, the elements can be as small as required. For this purpose, variations of the material properties are applied in both the integration points and in the n...
