In this work, the static response of a perforated functionally graded plate is investigated under pure shear. Young’s modulus is assumed to vary arbitrarily along the radial direction, while Poisson’s ratio keeps constant. Using the stress function method, the governing equation is obtained, and then the series solution of stresses is derived with the aid of the Frobenius method. Numerical examples show that the convergence rate of the presented solution is rapid.

In this study, glass-filled epoxy functionally graded material (FGM) was prepared by adopting the hand lay-up method. The vertical gravity casting was used to produce a continuous variation in elastic properties. A 30 % volume fraction of glass ingredients that have mean diameter 90 μm was spread in epoxy resin (ρ = 1050 kg/m3). The mechanical properties of FGM were evaluated according to ASTM D638. Experimental results showed that a gradually relationship between Young’s modulus and volume fraction of glass particles, where the value of Young’s modulus at high concentration of glass particles was greater than that at low concentration, while the value of Poisson’s ratio at high concentration of glass particles was lower than that at low concentration. The manufacture of this FG beam is particularly important and useful in order to benefit from it in the field of various fracture tests under dynamic or cyclic loads.

In the present research electro-mechanical bending behavior of sandwich nanoplate with functionally graded porous core and piezoelectric face sheets is carried out. Vlasov’s model foundation is utilized to model the silica Aerogel foundation. Two functions are considered for nonuniform variation of material properties of the core layer along the thickness direction such as Young’s modulus, shear modulus, and density. The governing equations are deduced from Hamilton’s principle based on sinusoidal shear and normal deformation theory. In order to solve seven governing equations, an iterative technique is accomplished. After all, deflection and stresses are verified with corresponding literatures. Eventually, the numerical results reveal that applied voltage, plate aspect ratio, thickness ratio, nonlocal parameter, porosity index, Young’s modulus, and height of silica Aerogel foundation have substantial effects on the electro-mechanical bending response of functionally graded porous sandwich nanoplate.

This study focused on the in-plane free vibration of uniform circular arches made of axially functionally graded (AFG) materials. Based on the dynamic equilibrium of an arch element, the governing equations for the free vibration of an AFG arch are derived in this study, where arbitrary functions for the Young’s modulus and mass density are acceptable. For the purpose of numerical analysis, quadratic polynomials for the Young’s modulus and mass density are considered. To calculate the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes, the governing equations are solved using the direct integral method enhanced by the trial eigenvalue method. For verification purposes, the predicted frequencies are compared to those obtained by the general purpose software ADINA. A parametric study of the end constraint, rotatory inertia, modular ratio, radius parameter, and subtended angle for the natural frequencies is conducted and the corresponding mode shapes are reported.

Thick-walled hollow cylinder is an important class of engineering structure, the stress state of which depends on the loads and properties of the body materials. Under the assumptions of σθ-σr=c (σθ and σr denote the hoop stress and radial stress, respectively, c is a constant), inverse analysis of thick-walled hollow cylinder composed of functionally graded materials with uniform pressure acting on the outer surface is carried out. Analytical solutions for the Young’s modulus variation in the radial direction are obtained. It is found that only when the Young’s modulus E(r) is a specific monotone increasing function of the radius r, the pre-specified stress distribution can be satisfied. Comparing with classical homogeneous materials, stress concentration at the inner surface of hollow cylinder composed of functionally graded materials can be alleviated. Hence the elastic ultimate bearing capacity of hollow cylinder can be improved strikingly. For functionally graded materials, the elastic ultimate bearing capacity can be improved strikingly by increasing the thickness of cylinder, which is not so obvious for classical homogeneous materials.

Radially rotating beams attached to a rigid stem occur in several important engineering applications. Some examples include helicopter blades, turbine blades and certain aerospace applications. In most studies the beams have been treated as homogeneous. Here, with a goal of system improvement, non-homogeneous beams made of functionally graded materials are explored. The effects on the natural frequencies of the system are investigated. Euler-Bernoulli theory, including an axial stiffening effect and variations of both Young's modulus and density, is employed. An assumed mode approach is utilized, with the modes taken to be beam characteristic orthogonal polynomials. Results are obtained via Rayleigh-Ritz method and are compared for both the homogeneous and non-homogeneous cases. It was found, for example, that allowing Young's modulus and density to vary by approximately 2.15 and 1.15 times, respectively, leads to an increase of 23% in the lowest bending rotating natural frequency of the beam.

Abstract A numerical analysis based on the meshless local Petrov- Galerkin (MLPG) method is proposed for a functionally graded material FGM (FGMfunctionally graded material) beam. The planar bending of the beam is considered with a transversal gradation of Young's modulus and a variable depth of the beam. The collocation formulation is constructed from the equilibrium equations for the mechanical fields. Dirac's delta function is employed as a test function in the derivation of a strong formulation. The Moving Least Squares (MLS) approximation technique is applied for an approximation of the spatial variations of all the physical quantities. An investigation of the accuracy, the convergence of the accuracy, the computational efficiency and the effect of the level of the gradation of Young's modulus on the behaviour of coupled mechanical fields is presented in various boundary value problems for a rectangular beam with a functionally graded Young's modulus.

Three Dimensional Elasticity

This paper studies the stress and displacement distributions of simply supported functionally graded rectangular plates with internal elastic line supports. The Young's modulus is graded through the thickness following the exponential law and the Poisson's ratio is kept constant. On the basis of three-dimensional elasticity theory, the solutions of displacements and stresses of the plate under static loads, which exactly satisfy the governing differential equations and the simply supported boundary conditions at four edges of the plate, are analytically derived. The reaction forces of the internal elastic line supports are regarded as the unknown external forces acting on the lower surface of the plate. The unknown coefficients in the solutions are then determined by the boundary conditions on the upper and lower surfaces of the plate. Convergence and comparison studies demonstrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method. The effect of variations in Young's modulus on the displacements and stresses of rectangular plates and the effect of internal elastic line supports on the mechanical properties of plates are investigated.
