In order to improve the ultimate bearing capacity, In this paper, the theory of functionally graded material is introduced. This paper simulate thick-walled cylinder with functionally graded characteristics through the analysis of using different reinforced ways along the radial direction. The author analyzes the stress state of the thick-walled cylinder with plain concrete and three different reinforced ways under the radical uniform load. Comparisons and evaluations are provided based on ANSYS results. The paper provide a reasonable reinforced way that is a larger reinforcement ratio near the outer and a smaller reinforcement ratio near the inner and is different with the traditional way. But the worst reinforcement arrangement is that a larger reinforcement ratio near the inner and a smaller reinforcement ratio near the outer. The conclusion shows that the principle that larger reinforcement ratio should be adopted where the tangential stress is larger is not suitable to the thick-walled cylinder.

In this paper, creep analysis for a thick-walled cylinder made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) subjected to thermal and internal pressure is carried out. The structure is replaced by a system of discrete rectangular cross-section ring elements interconnected along circumferential nodal circles. The property of FGM is assumed to be continuous function of volume fraction of material composition. The creep behavior of the structures is obtained by the use of an incremental approach. The obtained results show that the property of FGM significantly influences the stress distribution along the radial direction of the thick-walled cylinder as a function of time.

Safety analysis has been done for thick-walled circular cylinder under internal and external pressure using transition theory which is based on the concept of generalized principal Lebesgue strain measure. Results have been analyzed theoretically and discussed numerically. From the analysis, it can be concluded that circular cylinder made of functionally graded material is on the safer side of the design as compared to homogeneous cylinder with internal and external pressure, which leads to the idea of “stress saving” that minimizes the possibility of fracture of cylinder.

This work develops a novel torsional theory for a radially functionally graded (FG) porous shape memory alloy (SMA) circular bar. Prior to the theoretical development, the effective three-dimensional (3D) phenomenological constitutive model for SMAs with high porosity is proposed. To help derive successfully the theory, the pure shear-driven material parameters in the effective model are expressed in the cubic polynomial. Subsequently, the torsional theory for radially FG porous SMA circular bar is derived considering the evolution of effective phase evolution in the bar. This phase evolution consideration guarantees the accuracy of the developed theory. Indeed, the soundness of effective constitutive model is confirmed by 3D finite element method (FEM) simulation of porous SMA structure in Abaqus using the well-established ZM’s model for dense SMAs. Specifically, the simulating results in terms of the shear stress-shear strain response obtained from two prediction methods considering a variation of SMA volume fraction and temperature are in good agreement. Furthermore, accuracy of torsional theory is validated by 3D FEM simulation using the 3D effective constitutive model with a good agreement observed. It is found that the superelasticity of the bar can be enhanced by increasing the gradient index and decreasing the temperature and wall thickness.

In this paper, a theoretical solution for time-dependent thermo-elastic creep analysis of a functionally graded (FG) thick-walled cylinder based on the first-order shear deformation theory is presented. The cylinder is subjected to the non-uniform internal pressure and distributed temperature field due to steady-state heat conduction from inner to outer surface of the cylinder. Mechanical and thermal properties except Poisson’s ratio are assumed to vary along the thickness direction based on a power function. The creep constitutive model is on the basis of the Norton’s law. The effects of the temperature gradient and FG grading index on the creep stresses of the cylinder are investigated. A numerical solution using finite element method is also presented and good agreement was found. Although previous publications presented analytical solutions for creep analysis of thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessels under uniform pressure, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, so far, no analytical solution has been provided for time-dependent creep analysis of FG cylinder under non-uniform internal pressure. The results of this study are applicable for designing optimum FG thick-walled cylinder.
