This paper presents how to derive Airy stress function to obtain the thermal stresses in a tungsten-steel functionally graded solid cylinder with fixed ends in elastic region. Once Airy stress function is derived, the thermal stresses can be found due to the related equations. There is uniform heat generation inside the tungsten-steel functionally graded solid cylinder. Material properties of the functionally graded cylinder (FGC) are assumed to vary radially according to a parabolic form and assumed to be independent of the temperature. These properties are yield strength, modulus of elasticity, coefficient of thermal conduction and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). Poisson’s ratio is assumed to be constant as an average value between tungsten’s and steel’s. Airy stress function is derived in terms of these properties to characterize the FGC entirely.

This paper presents analytical solutions of the thermal stresses in a functionally graded solid cylinder with fixed ends in elastic region. These thermal stresses are due to the uniform heat generation inside the cylinder. Material properties of the functionally graded (FG) cylinder vary radially according to a parabolic form. The material properties are assumed to be independent of the temperature which are yield strength, elasticity modulus, thermal conduction coefficient, thermal expansion coefficient and Poisson’s ratio. The solutions for the thermal stresses are valid for both homogeneous and functionally graded materials.

Joining Si3N4 and Al2O3 using 15 layers has been achieved by a unique approach that introduces SiAlON polytypoids as a functionally graded material (FGM) bonding layer. Previously, the hot press sintering of multilayered FGM with 20 layers, each 500 µm thick, has been achieved successfully. In the present study, the number of layers for FGM was reduced from 20 to 15 to increase optimization. Samples were fabricated by hot pressing at 48 MPa during the temperature ramp to 1650°C and cooling at 2°C/min to minimize residual stresses from sintering. Moreover, a finite element method (FEM) program based on the maximum principal stress theory and the maximum tensile stress theory was applied to design optimized and reduced FGM layers that produced a crack-free joint. The sample had a 3-dimensional cylindrical shape that was transformed to a 2-dimensional axisymmetric mode. By determining the expected thermal stress from the calculated elastic modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion, we were able to predict and prevent damage due to thermal stresses. These analyses are especially useful for FGM samples where it is very difficult to measure the residual stresses experimentally. Finally, oriented Vickers indentation testing was used to qualitatively characterize the strengths of the joint and the various interfaces. The indentation cracks were deflected at the SiAlON layers, implying weak interfaces. In other areas, cracks were not deflected, implying strong interfaces.

Titanium-aluminum alloy metal matrix composites (MMC) and Ti-Al intermetallic matrix composites (IMC), reinforced with continuous SCS6 SiC fibers are leading candidates for high temperature aerospace applications such as the National Aerospace Plane (NASP). The nature of deformation at fiber / matrix interfaces is characterized in this ongoing research. One major concern is the mismatch in coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between the Ti-based matrix and the SiC fiber. This can lead to thermal stresses upon cooling down from the temperature incurred during hot isostatic pressing (HIP), which are sufficient to cause yielding in the matrix, and/or lead to fatigue from the thermal cycling that will be incurred during application, A second concern is the load transfer, from fiber to matrix, that is required if/when fiber fracture occurs. In both cases the stresses in the matrix are most severe at the interlace.

AbstractThe main aim of this article is to develop a new boundary element method (BEM) algorithm to model and simulate the nonlinear thermal stresses problems in micropolar functionally graded anisotropic (FGA) composites with temperature-dependent properties. Some inside points are chosen to treat the nonlinear terms and domain integrals. An integral formulation which is based on the use of Kirchhoff transformation is firstly used to simplify the transient heat conduction governing equation. Then, the residual nonlinear terms are carried out within the current formulation. The domain integrals can be effectively treated by applying the Cartesian transformation method (CTM). In the proposed BEM technique, the nonlinear temperature is computed on the boundary and some inside domain integral. Then, nonlinear displacement can be calculated at each time step. With the calculated temperature and displacement distributions, we can obtain the values of nonlinear thermal stresses. The efficiency of our proposed methodology has been improved by using the communication-avoiding versions of the Arnoldi (CA-Arnoldi) preconditioner for solving the resulting linear systems arising from the BEM to reduce the iterations number and computation time. The numerical outcomes establish the influence of temperature-dependent properties on the nonlinear temperature distribution, and investigate the effect of the functionally graded parameter on the nonlinear displacements and thermal stresses, through the micropolar FGA composites with temperature-dependent properties. These numerical outcomes also confirm the validity, precision and effectiveness of the proposed modeling and simulation methodology.
