This paper presents elastic solutions of a disk made of functionally graded material (FGM) with variable thickness subjected to rotating load. The material properties are represented by combination of two sigmoid FGM (S-FGM) namely aluminum–ceramic–aluminum and the disk's different thickness profiles are assumed to be represented by power law distributions. Hollow disks are considered and the solutions for the displacements and stresses are given under appropriate boundary conditions. The effects of the material grading index n and the geometry of the disk on the displacements and stresses are investigated. The results are compared with the known results in the literature on metal–ceramic–metal FGMs. Also the solutions are compared S-FGM versus FGM and non FGM and variable thickness versus uniform thickness. It is found that a sigmoid functionally graded disk with concave thickness profile has smaller displacements and stresses compared with concave or linear thickness profile. It is also observed that an S-FGM rotating functionally graded disk with metal–ceramic–metal combination can be more efficient than the one with ceramic–metal or metal–ceramic.

Abstract The present study reports the linear elastic analysis of variable thickness functionally graded rotating disks. Disk material is graded radially by varying the volume fraction ratios of the constituent components. Three types of distribution laws, namely power law, exponential law and Mori–Tanaka scheme are considered on a concave thickness profile rotating disk, and the resulting deformation and stresses are evaluated for clamped-free boundary condition. The investigation is carried out using element based grading of material properties on the discretized elements. The effect of grading on deformation and stresses is investigated for each type of material distribution law. Further, a comparison is made between different types of distributions. The results obtained show that in a rotating disk, the deformation and stress fields can be controlled by the distribution law and grading parameter n of the volume fraction ratio.
