In this paper, the W-Cu functionally graded material (FGM) was prepared by using the non-aqueous tape-casting technique combined with vacuum hot-pressing sintering. The graded composite material with high density, uniform transition and graded component was designed by 7 layers with the copper content range from 40 to 100 wt. %. Then the structures and properties of the composite were characterized. The scanning acoustic microscope (SAM) results for the W-Cu graded material showed that the interface between different layers was of high smoothness and parallel. The SEM-EDS results of cross section show that the W and Cu content changed gradually along the laminating direction after sintering. The equivalent electrical conductivity and the equivalent thermal conductivity of the W-Cu graded material were 0.3976×108 S/m and 323.5 W/(m·K), respectively, which were much higher than that of the W-40 wt. % Cu homogeneous composite. The Vickers hardness of the high tungsten content surface and the high copper surface were 163 HV and 80 HV, respectively, which were same with that of the homogeneous material.

Five-layered Al/Al-Cu functionally graded material (FGM) was fabricated by powder metallurgy technology. The microstructure and composition of the prepared specimen were studied. Vickers hardness, flexural strength and fracture surface morphology were also measured. The results showed that Al/Al-Cu graded material with dense structure and compositional continuous change was obtained by solution-precipitation method. The graded materials presented a compositional continuous change along the graded direction because of the diffusion effect, and the Vickers hardness was liner proportional to the distribution of Cu content. Compared with pure sintered Al, remarkable improvement on hardness and fracture strength was achieved due to the CuAl2 phase dispersively distributed in the matrix. With the increase of Cu content, the fracture mode changed from tough fracture to the tendency of brittle fracture.

AbstractFunctionally graded material (FGM) has some particular characteristics due to the gradual variation of physical properties. The study on mechanical behavior of FGM is of great research value. In this work, a large scale FGM which filled with small glass spheres has been prepared by gravity assisted casting technique. The elastic material constants in static condition are measured. One optical experimental method, coherent gradient sensing (CGS), is introduced to study the mechanical behavior of FGM which has variation of material property in power-law. The governing equations of CGS which is used to represent the optics-mechanics relation of the singular field near the point of the outside force are derived based on the power-law asymptotic expansion. The experimental result shows this CGS method as a nondestructive methodology can be used to detect the damage in FGM with high accuracy.

We present a verification method for the finite element computation of the J-integrals in functionally graded material. An interval is obtained for the J-integral by an output bound procedure for the quantity of interest. The difference between homogeneous material and functionally graded material is that the parameter before the quadratic term in the error equation is a function of coordinates, not a constant in the homogeneous material. An optimal value for of the parameter is calculated for obtaining efficient bounds on the J-integral.
