in this article, thermal stability of beams made of functionally graded material (fgm) is considered. the derivations of equations are based on the one-dimensional theory of elasticity. the material properties vary continuously through the thickness direction. tanigawa's model for the variation of poisson's ratio, the modulus of shear stress, and the coefcient of thermal expansion is...

A new class of hybrid/mixed finite elements, denoted “HMFEM-C”, has been developed for modeling magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) materials. These elements are based on assuming independent strain-fields, electric and magnetic fields, and collocating them with the strain-fields, electric and magnetic fields derived from the primal variables (mechanical displacements, electric and magnetic potential...

In this paper, free vibration analysis of orthotropic functionally graded material (FGM) cylinders was carried out by a Mesh-Free method. In this analysis, moving least squares shape functions are used for approximation of displacement field in the weak form of equilibrium equation. Essential boundary conditions are imposed by transformation method. In this simulation, an axisymmetric model is ...

In this paper, a study on the vibration of thin cylindrical shells made of a functionally gradient material (FGM) composed of stainless steel and nickel is presented. The effects of the FGM configuration are taken into account by studying the frequencies of two FG cylindrical shells. Type I FG cylindrical shell has nickel on its inner surface and stainless steel on its outer surface and Type II...

Abstract  In this paper , the nonlinear the nonlinear free and forced axisymmetric vibration of a thin circular functionally graded plate with rigid core is formulated in terms of von-Karman’s dynamic equation , and a semi-analytical approach is developed.Functionally graded material (FGM) properties vary through the thickness of the plate.FGM s are spatial composites within which material prop...

This paper deals with the determination of displacement function and thermal stresses of a finite length isotropic functionally graded hollow cylinder subjected to uniform temperature field. The solution of the governing thermoelastic equation is obtained, as suggested by Spencer et al. for anisotropic laminates.  Numerical calculations are also carried out for FGM (Functionally graded material...

in this paper, a general solution for torsion of hollow cylinders made of functionally graded materials (fgm) was investigated. the problem was formulated in terms of prandtl’s stress and, in general, the shear stress and angle of twist were derived. variations in the material properties such as young’s modulus and poisson’s ratio might be arbitrary functions of the radial coordinate. various m...

Functionally graded materials (FGM) eliminate the stress singularity in interface between two different and therefore have a wide range of applications high temperature environments such as engines, nuclear reactors, spacecrafts etc. Therefore, it is essential to study mechanical properties FGM materials. This paper aims at establishing method for modelling FGMs molecular dynamics (MD) get bett...

A series of three articles presents an innovative way to build advanced functionally graded materials (FGM) based on polymer/ceramic (epoxy/SrTiO3) composites tailored by electrophoresis for field grading in power electronics. In Part 3, this method is applied the context modules DBC substrate encapsulation. An evaluation FGM performances reported electrostatic simulations and breakdown voltage...

In this work, a 316L stainless steel to Inconel 625 functionally graded material (FGM) was built using different deposition strategies (named as direct and smooth-type interfaces) by Twin-Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (T-WAAM). This combination of materials is interest in chemical plants, oil & gas, nuclear applications, where high corrosion wear resistance are essential requirements. Althoug...
