In this research, a numerical modeling was utilized to calculate the stresses caused during thermal cycling in a functionally graded thermal barrier coating (FG - TBC). The temperature – dependent material response of this protective material was taken into account and the effects of thermal cycle and interface morphology of the ceramic / metallic layer in functionally graded coating system wa...

This paper investigates the bending, vibration, and buckling behaviour of functionally graded (FG) curved sandwich beams using a global–local refined shear deformation theory. Material properties these are varied through thickness according to power-law distribution. A beam element with combination Hermite cubic quadratic Lagrange shape functions is developed solve problems. The obtained result...

In the present research, dynamic responses of multilayer functionally graded graphene platelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) spherical panels under blast loading are studied. Three-dimensional elasticity theory is employed to derive governing equations. The distribution (GPLs) in each layer uniform and random with a constant weight fraction. GPLs concentration across panel thickness may be o...

In this article, dynamic modeling of double walled cylindrical functionally graded (FG) microshell is studied. Size effect of double walled cylindrical FG microshell are investigated using modified couple stress theory (MCST). Each layer of microshell is embedded in a viscoelastic medium. For the first time, in the present study, has been considered, FG length scale parameter in double walled c...

We use the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) coupled with the finite element method (FEM) to study free vibrations of a functionally graded (FG) anisotropic rectangular plate with the objective of maximizing one of its first five natural frequencies. The following edge conditions are considered: (i) all edges clamped, (ii) all edges simply supported, (iii) two opposite edges clamped a...

In this study, the free vibration analysis of a functionally graded (FG) micro-beam with tapered cross-section is carried out theoretically. The beam has material distribution according to power law throughout thickness. governing equation reduced an ordinary differential for cross-sectional geometry whose width varies exponentially. Vibrations microbeams were analyzed analytically in elastic v...

Abstract In this article, the nonlinear dynamic responses of sandwich functionally graded (FG) porous cylindrical shell embedded in elastic media are investigated. The studied here consists three layers, which outer and inner skins made solid metal, while core is FG metal foam. Partial differential equations derived by utilizing improved Donnell’s theory Hamilton’s principle. Afterwards, Galerk...

this paper presents a clear monograph on the optimization of thermal instability resistance of the fg (functionally graded) flat structures. for this aim, two fg flat structures, namely an fg beam and an fg circular plate, are considered. these structures are assumed to obey the first-order shear deformation theory, three-parameters power-law distribution of the constituents, and clamped bounda...
