free vibration of simply supported circular cylindrical shell made of functionally graded material (fgm) under internal pressure was investigated. the effective material properties are assumed to vary continuously along the thickness direction according to a volume fraction power law distribution. first order shear deformation theory based on love's first approximation theory was utilized in th...

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, the effect of autofrettage process parameters on the ultimate pressure that functionally graded spherical vessel can tolerate are investigated. fgm properties and autofrettage pressure are considered as important parameters. assumptions are variation of properties of fgm in radial direction, the residual stress in the absence of bauschinger effect with the operation of variable m...

in this paper, finite element elastic contact analysis of a functionally graded (fg) hollow brake disk in contact with pad, subjected to rotation, contact pressure and frictional heat is presented. the material properties vary through the thickness according to a power-law characterised by a grading index, n. the material property is purely steel at the core part and gradually moves and approac...

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.

Functionally graded materials, as a branch of new materials, have attracted increasing attention in recent years. A survey in the literature reveals the existence of wealth investigations on analysis of functionally graded material beams. Among them, Kang and Lee [1] presented explicit expressions for deflection and rotation of an FGM cantilever beam subjected to an end moment. Considering the ...

Safety analysis has been done for the torsion of a functionally graded thick-walled  circular cylinder under internal and external pressure subjected to thermal loading. In order to determine stresses the concept of Seth’s transition theory based on generalized principal strain measure has been used. This theory simplifies the set of mechanical equations by mentioning the order of the measure of...

In this paper, the effect of autofrettage process parameters on the ultimate pressure that functionally graded spherical vessel can tolerate are investigated. FGM properties and autofrettage pressure are considered as important parameters. Assumptions are variation of properties of FGM in radial direction, the residual stress in the absence of Bauschinger effect with the operation of variable m...

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...

Our aim of is to develop a processing method for a rotating disc made of functionally graded materials (FGM), by stacking the slurry, layer by layer in a radial direction. A three-layer functionally graded material of Al/Al2O3 is fabricated with compositions of 10, 20, 30 vol.% Al2O3. The ceramic composition increases from the discs inner (centre) to the outer. The combination of these material...
