this research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. by considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

This paper studies free vibration of simply supported functionally graded beams with piezoelectric layers subjected to axial compressive loads. The Young's modulus of beam is assumed to be graded continuously across the beam thickness. Applying the Hamilton’s principle, the governing equation is established. Resulting equation is solved using the Euler’s Equation. The effects of the constituent...

In this paper ,the general solution of steady-state one dimensional asymmetric thermal stresses and electrical and mechanical displacements of a hollow cylinder made of functionally graded material and piezoelectric layers is developed .The material properties ,except the Poisson's ration, are assumed to depend on the variable radius and they are expressed as power functions of radius. The temp...

In this paper, an analytical method is developed to obtain the solution for the one dimensional transient thermal and mechanical stresses in a hollow cylinder made of functionally graded material (FGM) and piezoelectric layers. The FGM properties are assumed to depend on the variable r and they are expressed as power functions of r but the Poisson’s ratio is assumed to be constant. Transient te...

In this paper dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded panel is studied using a semi-analytical numerical method entitled the state-space based differential method (SSDQM) and comparative behavior modeling by artificial neural network (ANN) for different parameters. A semi-analytical approach which makes use the three-dimensional elastic theory and assuming the material propert...
