Effect of material in-homogeneity on electro-thermo-mechanical behaviors of functionally graded piezoelectric rotating shaft

In this article, a hollow circular shaft made from functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) such as PZT_5 has been studied which is rotating about its axis at a constant angular velocity ω. This shaft subjected to internal and external pressure, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction with convective boundary condition, and a constant potential difference between its inner and outer surfaces or combination of these loadings. All mechanical, thermal and piezoelectric properties except for the Poisson’s ratio are assumed to be power functions of the radial position. The governing equation in polarized form is shown to reduce to a system of second-order ordinary differential equation for the radial displacement. Considering six different sets of boundary conditions, this differential equation is analytically solved. The electro-thermo-mechanical stress and the electric potential distributions in the FGPM hollow shaft are discussed in detail for the piezoceramic PZT_5. The presented results indicate that the material in-homogeneity has a significant influence on the electro-thermo-mechanical behaviors of the FGPM rotating shaft and should therefore be considered in its optimum design.     

Investigation on a rotating FGPM circular disk under a coupled hygrothermal field

In this paper, the distributions of the temperature, moisture, displacement and stress of a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) circular disk rotating around its axis at a constant angular velocity under a coupled hygrothermal field are presented by a numerical method. The material properties of the FGPM circular disk are assumed to vary along the radial coordinate exponentially. First, the coupled hygrothermal field along the radius of a rotating circular disk is achieved by solving the coupled hygrothermal equations, and then the dynamic equilibrium is solved by utilizing the finite difference method. Finally, numerical results show the effects of functionally graded index, inner radius, angular speed and hygrothermal index on the hygrothermal behaviors of the FGPM circular disk. The results can be useful for the optimal design of rotating FGPM circular disks under a coupled hygrothermal field.

Dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded annular plates

Dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded annular plates is achieved in this paper using a semi-analytical numerical method entitled the state space-based differential quadrature method. Based on the three-dimensional elastic theory and assuming the material properties having an exponent-law variation along the thickness, radial direction or both directions, the frequency equations of free vibration of multi-directional functionally graded annular plates are derived under various boundary conditions. Numerical examples are presented to validate the approach and the superiority of this method is also demonstrated. Then free vibration of functionally graded annular plates is studied for different variations of material properties along the thickness, radial direction and both directions, respectively. And the influences of the material property graded variations on the dynamic behavior are also investigated. The multi-directional graded material can likely be designed according to the actual requirement and it is a potential alternative to the unidirectional functionally graded material.     

On rotating circular disks with varying material properties

Taking Young’s modulus, thermal expansion coefficient and density to be the functions of the radial coordinate, a closed form solution of rotating circular disks made of functionally graded materials subjected to a constant angular velocity and a uniform temperature change is proposed in this paper. Excellent agreement with the solution from Mathematica 5.0 indicates the correctness of the proposed closed form solution. Distributions of the radial displacement and stresses in the disks are determined with the proposed approach and how material properties, temperature change, geometric size and different material coefficients affect deformations and stresses is investigated.

One-dimensional analysis for magneto-thermo-mechanical response in a functionally graded annular variable-thickness rotating disk

In this paper, the magneto-thermo-mechanical response of a functionally graded magneto-elastic material (FGMM) annular variable-thickness rotating disk is investigated. The material properties namely material stiffness, heat conduction coefficient, thermal expansion coefficient, mass density and magnetic permeability are assumed to vary continuously along the radial direction according to a power law. The thickness profile of the disk placed in a uniform magnetic field and subjected to the thermal load is assumed to be hyperbolic in nature. The effects of the magnetic field, grading index and geometric nonlinearity on the mechanical and thermal stresses of the disk are investigated. For a specific value of the grading index the maximum radial stress due to magneto-mechanical load in a mounted FGMM disk with hyperbolic convergent profile is found away from the center. This result is different from other thickness profile disks where the radial stresses are always at the center. It is observed that unlike radial stress in a mounted FGM disk subjected to mechanical load only where it is always tensile, the radial stress due to magneto-thermal load in a mounted FGMM disk can be both tensile and compressive type. It is seen that a decrease in the value of grading index invokes shifting of the location of the maximum temperature in FGMM disk with hyperbolic convergent profile towards the outer surface of the disk.

Electro-thermo-mechanical behaviors of FGPM spheres using analytical method and ANSYS software

A hollow sphere made from functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) such as PZT_4 has been considered. One-dimensional analytical method for electro-thermo-mechanical response of symmetrical spheres is used. For asymmetric three-dimensional analysis, ANSYS finite element software is employed in this study. Loading is combination of internal and external pressures, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction and a constant electric potential difference between its inner and outer surfaces for analytical solution. In three-dimensional solutions closed and open spheres with different boundary conditions subjected to an internal pressure and a uniform temperature field are studied. All mechanical, thermal and piezoelectric properties except the Poisson’s ratio are assumed to be power functions of radius. It has been found from analytical solution that the induced radial and circumferential stresses of an imposed electric potential is similar to the residual stresses locked in the homogeneous sphere during the autofrettage process of these vessels. It has been concluded from the three-dimensional analysis that the magnitudes of effective stresses at all node points are higher for the clamped-clamped boundary condition and are lower for the simply-simply supported condition.

An analytical method for magnetothermoelastic analysis of functionally graded hollow cylinders

This paper considers magnetothermoelastic behavior of a functionally graded material (FGM) hollow cylinder, placed in a uniform magnetic field, subjected to thermal and mechanical loads. Exact solutions for stresses and perturbations of the magnetic field vector in FGM hollow cylinders is determined by using the infinitesimal theory of magnetothermoelasticity. Numerical results indicate that the inhomogeneous constants presented in the present study are useful parameters from a design point of view in that it can be tailored for specific applications to control the stress and perturbation of magnetic field vector distributions. This research is helpful for the optimum design annular cylindrical FGM sensors/actuators.     

Cycle-transitive comparison of independent random variables

The discrete dice model, previously introduced by the present authors, essentially amounts to the pairwise comparison of a collection of independent discrete random variables that are uniformly distributed on finite integer multisets. This pairwise comparison results in a probabilistic relation that exhibits a particular type of transitivity, called dice-transitivity. In this paper, the discrete dice model is generalized with the purpose of pairwisely comparing independent discrete or continuous random variables with arbitrary probability distributions. It is shown that the probabilistic relation generated by a collection of arbitrary independent random variables is still dice-transitive. Interestingly, this probabilistic relation can be seen as a graded alternative to the concept of stochastic dominance. Furthermore, when the marginal distributions of the random variables belong to the same parametric family of distributions, the probabilistic relation exhibits interesting types of isostochastic transitivity, such as multiplicative transitivity. Finally, the probabilistic relation generated by a collection of independent normal random variables is proven to be moderately stochastic transitive.     

On the determination of mixed mode stress intensity factors of an angled crack in a disc using FEM

This paper is concerned with the rigorous determination of the stress intensity factors of an arbitrary located and oriented angled crack in discs using the finite element method. Three different loading conditions are examined: boundary loadings resulting from disc attachments and/or interference fit with a rotating shaft, body forces resulting from rotation at a constant angular velocity and thermal stresses associated with a quadratic radial temperature distribution. Three techniques are adopted in the evaluation of the resulting mixed-mode stress intensity factors: direct extrapolation methods, virtual crack extension and J-integral method. Verification with available referenced solutions for the simple case of a radial crack is provided and merits and limitations associated with the above three methods are discussed.     

Free vibration analysis of FGM cylindrical shells surrounded by Pasternak elastic foundation in thermal environment considering fluid-structure interaction

This paper presents an investigation on partially fluid-filled cylindrical shells made of functionally graded materials (FGM) surrounded by elastic foundations (Pasternak elastic foundation) in thermal environment. Material properties are assumed to be temperature dependent and radially variable in terms of volume fraction of ceramic and metal according to a simple power law distribution. The shells are reinforced by stiffeners attached to their inside and outside in which the material properties of shell and the stiffeners are assumed to be continuously graded in the thickness direction. The formulations are derived based on smeared stiffeners technique and classical shell theory using higher-order shear deformation theory which accounts for shear flexibility through shell's thickness. Displacements and rotations of the shell middle surface are approximated by combining polynomial functions in the meridian direction and truncated Fourier series with an appropriate number of harmonic terms in the circumferential direction. The governing equations of liquid motion are derived using a finite strip element formulation of incompressible inviscid potential flow. The dynamic pressure of the fluid is expanded as a power series in the radial direction. Moreover, the quiescent liquid free surface is modeled by concentric annular rings. A detailed numerical study is carried out to investigate the effects of power-law index of functional graded material, fluid depth, stiffeners, boundary conditions, temperature and geometry of the shell on the natural frequency of eccentrically stiffened functionally graded shell surrounded by Pasternak foundations.     

The heat conduction problem for orthotropic shells with a system of cuts

Using the Fourier integral method we have solved the heat conduction problem for an orthotropic shell of arbitrary Gaussian curvature with a system of thermally insulated cuts. In the process we have taken account of heat exchange on the lateral surfaces of the shells. We have studied the influence of the anistropy properties of the material on the distribution of the perturbed temperature field. Using the example of a system consisting of two cuts we have studied the dependence of jumps in the integral characteristics of the temperature on the relative locations of the cuts.

Post buckling response of functionally graded materials plate subjected to mechanical and thermal loadings with random material properties

In this paper, the second order statistics of post buckling response of functionally graded materials plate (FGM) subjected to mechanical and thermal loading with nonuniform temperature changes subjected to temperature independent (TID) and dependent (TD) material properties is examined. Material properties such as material properties of each constituent’s materials, volume fraction index are taken as independent random input variables. The basic formulation is based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) with von-Karman nonlinear kinematic using modified C⁰ continuity. A direct iterative based C⁰ nonlinear finite element method (FEM) combined with mean centered first order perturbation technique (FOPT) proposed by last two authors for the composite plate is extended for Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) plate with reasonable accuracy to compute the second order statistics (mean and coefficient of variation) of the post buckling load response of the FGM plates. The effect of random material properties with amplitude ratios, volume fraction index, plate thickness ratios, aspect ratios, boundary conditions and types of loadings subjected to TID and TD material properties are presented through numerical examples. The performance of outlined present approach is validated with the results available in literatures and independent Monte Carlo simulation (MCS).
