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.

In this paper, mechanical response of a micro/nanorotating disk made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) with variable thickness is investigated. Through utilizing variational method and considering the strain gradient theory, the governing equations and the boundary conditions are derived. In order to verify the developed formulation, in special limiting cases, the results are compared with those available in the literature. These comparisons show an excellent correspondence. Employing numerical techniques, some numerical results are presented to investigate the effect of variations of properties and thickness on the response of the small scale rotating disk. It is found that the non-homogeneity constants have a remarkable effect on the stress distribution in the FG rotating disk. Furthermore, the amount of stress could be reduced in the rotating disk through fabricating it with variable thickness.

Abstract In this research paper, displacement, stresses and strains are presented for rotating FGM disk with variable thickness by using finite element method (FEM). Thermo-elastic material properties and thickness of FGM disk continuously vary as exponential and power law function in radial direction along radius of disk. The value of Poisson's ratio is taken as constant. The problem of thermo-elasticity is converted into second order governing differential equation in terms of radial coordinate. This conversion is based upon equilibrium equation for disk and stress-strain relationship. The influence of variable thickness, angular velocity and functionally graded materials is discussed on thermo-elastic characteristics of rotating disk for exponential variation of material properties. Further, these thermo-elastic characteristics of disk are plotted for various values of non-homogeneity parameter under power law distribution of material properties. Thus, the investigations done in this research paper may be useful for industrial area in construction an appropriate FGM disk by controlling above mentioned parameters.
