Stress And Deformation

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.

Power Law Function

We studied the stress field and vibration characteristics of functionally graded rotating disks by solving the governing equation of motion using the finite difference scheme. The material was assumed to have a constant Poisson’s ratio with the elastic modulus varying as a power law function of the disk radius. Such a material could be developed by using particle reinforced composites with various reinforcements or reinforcement volume fraction. The results show that the first critical speed of the rotating disk could be increased by using FGMs. The first critical speed is greater for disks having higher elastic modulus at the outer radius. However, the disk may be unstable for certain distribution functions.

Stress Uniformity

The behavior of thermo-mechanical stresses in functionally graded axisymmetric rotating hollow disks with variable thickness is analyzed. The material is assumed to be functionally graded in the radial direction. First, a two-dimensional axisymmetric model of the functionally graded rotating disk is developed using the finite element method. Exact solutions for stresses are then obtained assuming that the plane theory of elasticity holds. These solutions are in accordance with finite element ones, thus showing the validity of the assumption. Finally, in order to reduce the maximum equivalent stress along the radius, the optimization of the material distribution is addressed. To avoid subsequent finite element simulations in the optimization process, which can be computationally demanding, a nonlinear constrained optimization problem is proposed, for which the solution is obtained numerically by the sequential quadratic programming method, showing prominent results in terms of equivalent stress uniformity.

Nonuniform Thickness

Displacement and stress fields in a functionally graded (FG) fiber-reinforced rotating disk of nonuniform thickness subjected to angular deceleration are obtained. The disk has a central hole, which is assumed to be mounted on a rotating shaft. Unidirectional fibers are considered to be circumferentially distributed within the disk with a variable volume fraction along the radius. The governing equations for displacement and stress fields are derived and solved using finite difference method. The results show that for disks with fiber rich at the outer radius, the displacement field is lower in radial direction but higher in circumferential direction compared to the disk with the fiber rich at the inner radius. The circumferential stress value at the outer radius is substantially higher for disk with fiber rich at the outer radius compared to the disk with the fiber rich at the inner radius. It is also observed a considerable amount of compressive stress developed in the radial direction in a region close to the outer radius. These compressive stresses may prevent any crack growth in the circumferential direction of such disks. For disks with fiber rich at the inner radius, the presence of fibers results in minimal changes in the displacement and stress fields when compared to a homogenous disk made from the matrix material. In addition, we concluded that disk deceleration has no effect on the radial and hoop stresses. However, deceleration will affect the shear stress. Tsai–Wu failure criterion is evaluated for decelerating disks. For disks with fiber rich at the inner radius, the failure is initiated between inner and outer radii. However, for disks with fiber rich at the outer radius, the failure location depends on the fiber distribution.

Remarkable Effect

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.
