A functionally graded curved beam subjected to a shear tension force as well as a concentrated force at the free end is solved based on the inverse method, and a general two-dimensional solution is presented. The explicit expressions are derived by assuming that the elastic properties within curved beams vary in the radial direction according to a power law, i.e., E = E0rn, but are constant across the depth. After degenerating it into the isotropic homogeneous elastic cases, the results are in good consistency with existing analytical solutions. The stresses and displacements are firstly observed in different forms in terms of the different power function exponent n. These results will be useful as a guide for designing devices or as benchmark to assess other approximate methodologies.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the large deflection of a slender functionally graded beam under the transverse loading. Firstly, by modeling the functionally graded beam as a layered structure with graded yield strength, a unified yield criterion for a functionally graded metallic beam is established. Based on the proposed yielding criteria, analytical solutions (AS) for the large deflections of fully clamped functionally graded beams subjected to transverse loading are formulated. Comparisons between the present solutions with numerical results are made and good agreements are found. The effects of gradient profile and gradient intensity factor on the large deflections of functionally graded beams are discussed in detail. The reliability of the present analytical model is demonstrated, and the larger the gradient variation ratio near the loading surface is, the more accurate the layer-graded beam model will be.

Functionally Graded Layer

This work addresses the dispersion of Love wave in an isotropic homogeneous elastic half-space covered with a functionally graded layer. First, the general dispersion equations are given. Then, the approximation analytical solutions of displacement, stress and the general dispersion relations of Love wave in both media are derived by the WKBJ approximation method. The solutions are checked against numerical calculations taking an example of functionally graded layer with exponentially varying shear modulus and density along the thickness direction. The dispersion curves obtained show that a cut-off frequency arises in the lowest order vibration model.

Analytical solutions of stress fields in functionally graded circular hollow cylinder with finite length subjected to axisymmetric pressure loadings on inner and outer surfaces are presented in this paper. The cylinder is simply supported at its two ends. Young's modulus of the material is assumed to vary continuously in radial direction of the cylinder. Moreover, numerical results of stresses in functionally graded circular hollow cylinder are appeared.

In this paper, higher order closed-formed analytical solutions for the buckling analysis of functionally graded sandwich rectangular plates are obtained using a unified shear deformation theory. Three-layered sandwich plates with functionally graded skins on top and bottom; and isotropic core in the middle are considered for the study. The material properties of skins are varied through the thickness according to the power-law distribution. Two types of sandwich plates (hardcore and softcore) are considered for the detail numerical study. A unified shear deformation theory developed in the present study uses polynomial and non-polynomial-type shape functions in terms of thickness coordinate to account for the effect of shear deformation. In the present theory, the in-plane displacements consider the combined effect of bending rotation and shear rotation. The parabolic shear deformation theory of Reddy and the first-order shear deformation theory of Mindlin are the particular cases of the present unified formulation. The governing differential equations are evaluated from the principle of virtual work. Closed-formed analytical solutions are obtained by using the Navier’s technique. The non-dimensional critical buckling load factors are obtained for various power-law coefficients, aspect ratios and skin-core-skin thickness ratios.
