Thermal buckling and postbuckling of FGM circular plates with in-plane elastic restraints

Based on von Karman's plate theory, the axisymmetric thermal buckling and post-buckling of the functionally graded material(FGM) circular plates with inplane elastic restraints under transversely non-uniform temperature rise are studied. The properties of the FGM media are varied through the thickness based on a simple power law. The governing equations are numerically solved by a shooting method. The results of the critical buckling temperature, post-buckling equilibrium paths, and configurations for the in-plane elastically restrained plates are presented. The effects of the in-plane elastic restraints, material property gradient, and temperature variation on the responses of thermal buckling and post-buckling are examined in detail.     

Thermal post-buckling and nonlinear vibration analysis of FGM beams based on physical neutral surface and high order shear deformation theory

Thermal post-buckling and nonlinear vibration behaviors of FGM beams are analyzed by using concept of physical neutral surface, von Kármán strain-displacement relationships and high order shear deformation theory. Material properties are assumed to be temperature dependent and vary along the thickness. The prominent character of physical neutral surface higher-order shear deformation beam theory is that stretching-bending couplings are eliminated in constitutive equations, and governing equations have the similar forms as homogeneous isotropic beams. Approximate solutions are given out by Ritz method, and influences played by different supported boundaries, thermal environmental conditions and volume fraction index are discussed in detail.

Optimum material design for functionally gradient material plate

Summary Steady thermal stresses in a plate made of a functionally gradient material (FGM) are analyzed theoretically and calculated numerically. An FGM plate composed of PSZ and Ti-6Al-4V is examined, and the temperature dependence of the material properties is considered. A local safety factor is used for evaluation of the FGM's strength. It is assumed that top and bottom surfaces of the plate are heated and kept at constant thermal boundary conditions. The pairs of the surface temperatures, for which the minimum local safety factor can be of more than one, are obtained as available temperature regions. The temperature dependence of the material properties diminishes, available temperature region as compared with that for an FGM plate without it. The available temperature region of the FGM plate is wider than that of the two-layered plate, especially for the surface temperatures which are high at the ceramic surface and low at the metal side. The influence of different mechanical boundary conditions is examined, and available temperature regions are found to be different, depending on the mechanical boundary conditions. The influence of the intermediate composition on the thermal stress reduction is also investigated in detail for the surface temperatures which are kept at 1300 K at the ceramic surface and 300K at the metal side. Appropriate intermediate composition of the FGM plate can yield the local safety factor of one or more for the four mechanical boundary conditions at once. For the two-layered plate there does not exist, however, any appropriate pair of metal and ceramic thicknesses which would yield the local safety factor of one or more for the four mechanical boundary conditions at once. The influence of the intermediate composition on the maximization of the minimum stress ratio depends on the mechanical boundary conditions. Finally, the optimal FGM plates are determined.

THERMAL POST-BUCKLING OF FUNCTIONALLY GRADED MATERIAL TIMOSHENKO BEAMS

Analysis of thermal post-buckling of FGM (Functionally Graded Material) Timoshenko beams subjected to transversely non-uniform temperature rise is presented. By accurately considering the axial extension and transverse shear deformation in the sense of theory of Timoshenko beam, geometrical nonlinear governing equations including seven basic unknown functions for functionally graded beams subjected to mechanical and thermal loads were formulated. In the analysis, it was assumed that the material properties of the beam vary continuously as a power function of the thickness coordinate. By using a shooting method, the obtained nonlinear boundary value problem was numerically solved and thermal buckling and post-buckling response of transversely non-uniformly heated FGM Timoshenko beams with fixed-fixed edges were obtained. Characteristic curves of the buckling deformation of the beam varying with thermal load and the power law index are plotted. The effects of material gradient property on the buckling deformation and critical temperature of beam were discussed in details. The results show that there exists the tension-bend coupling deformation in the uniformly heated beam because of the transversely non-uniform characteristic of materials.

Nonlinear bending and post-buckling of a functionally graded circular plate under mechanical and thermal loadings

Based on the classical nonlinear von Karman plate theory, axisymmetric large deflection bending of a functionally graded circular plate is investigated under mechanical, thermal and combined thermal–mechanical loadings, respectively, and axisymmetric thermal post-buckling behavior of a functionally graded circular plate is also investigated. The mechanical and thermal properties of functionally graded material (FGM) are assumed to vary continuously through the thickness of the plate, and obey a simple power law of the volume fraction of the constituents. Governing equations for the problem are derived, and then a shooting method is employed to numerically solve the equations. Effects of material constant n and boundary conditions on the temperature distribution, nonlinear bending, critical buckling temperature and thermal post-buckling behavior of the FGM plate are discussed in details.     

Buckling and post-buckling analyses for an axially compressed laminated cylindrical shell of FGM with PFRC in thermal environments

In this paper, investigation on buckling and post-buckling behaviors of a laminated cylindrical shell of functionally graded material (FGM) with the piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (PFRC) actuators subjected to thermal and axial compressed loads is presented. Based on the Donnell assumptions, the material properties of the FGM layer vary smoothly through the laminated cylindrical shell thickness according to a power law distribution of the volume fraction of constituent materials. In the present study, a numerical procedure for the laminated cylindrical shell is used based on the Ritz energy method and the nonlinear strain–displacement relations. Some useful discussion and numerical examples are presented to show various effects of temperature field, volume fraction and geometric parameters on the buckling and post-buckling behaviors of the laminated cylindrical shell with PFRC.     

Dynamic thermal buckling of suddenly heated temperature-dependent FGM cylindrical shells,under combined axial compression and external pressure

FGM components are constructed to sustain high temperature gradients. There are many applications where the FGM components are vulnerable to transient thermal shocks. If a component is already under compressive external loads (e.g. under a combination of axial compression and external pressure), the mentioned thermal shocks will cause the component to exhibit dynamic behavior and in some cases may lead to buckling. On the other hand, a preheated FGM component may undergo dynamic mechanical loads. Only static thermal buckling investigations were developed so far for the FGM shells. In the present paper, dynamic buckling of a pre-stressed, suddenly heated imperfect FGM cylindrical shell and dynamic buckling of a mechanically loaded imperfect FGM cylindrical shell in thermal environment, with temperature-dependent properties are presented. The general form of Green’s strain tensor in curvilinear coordinates and a high order shell theory proposed already by the author are used. Instead of using semi-analytical solutions that rely on the validity of the separation of variables concept, the complicated nonlinear governing equations are solved using the finite element method. Buckling load is detected by a modified Budiansky criterion proposed by the author. The effects of temperature-dependency of the material properties, volume fraction index, load combination, and initial geometric imperfections on the thermo-mechanical post-buckling behavior of a shell with two constituent materials are evaluated. The results reveal that the volume fraction index and especially, the differences between the thermal stresses created in the outer and the inner surfaces may change the buckling behavior. Furthermore, temperature gradient and initial imperfections have less effect on buckling of a shell subjected to a pure external pressure.     

Two-dimensional thermoelastic contact problem of functionally graded materials involving frictional heating

The two-dimensional thermoelastic sliding frictional contact of functionally graded material (FGM) coated half-plane under the plane strain deformation is investigated in this paper. A rigid punch is sliding over the surface of the FGM coating with a constant velocity. Frictional heating, with its value proportional to contact pressure, friction coefficient and sliding velocity, is generated at the interface between the punch and the FGM coating. The material properties of the coating vary exponentially along the thickness direction. In order to solve the heat conduction equation analytically, the homogeneous multi-layered model is adopted for treating the graded thermal diffusivity coefficient with other thermomechanical properties being kept as the given exponential forms. The transfer matrix method and Fourier integral transform technique are employed to convert the problem into a Cauchy singular integral equation which is then solved numerically to obtain the unknown contact pressure and the in-plane component of the surface stresses. The effects of the gradient index, Peclet number and friction coefficient on the thermoelastic contact characteristics are discussed in detail. Numerical results show that the distribution of the contact stress can be altered and therefore the thermoelastic contact damage can be modified by adjusting the gradient index, Peclet number and friction coefficient.     

Thermoelastic instability of functionally graded materials with interaction of frictional heat and contact resistance

Both of the frictional heat and thermal contact resistance have a grave responsibility for the localized high temperature (hot spots) at the contact region, which is known as one of the most dangerous appearances in the brakes systems. In this paper, we study the thermoelastic instability (TEI) of a functionally graded material (FGM) half-plane sliding against a homogeneous half-plane at the in-plane direction. The interaction of the frictional heat and thermal contact resistance is taken into account in the TEI analysis. The material properties of the FGM half-plane are supposed to follow the exponential function along the thickness direction. The coupled TEI problem of FGMs is solved by using the perturbation method. The frictionally excited TEI of FGMs is also considered by neglecting the effect of the thermal contact resistance. The results show that the thermal contact resistance, sliding speed and gradient index have significant influence on the TEI. It is found that the variation of the gradient index of FGMs can increase the critical sliding speed and critical heat flux, and therefore improve the TEI of the sliding system.

Nonlinear bending analysis of FGM rectangular plates with various supported boundaries resting on two-parameter elastic foundations

In this paper, model of the FGM plates resting on two-parameter elastic foundations is put forward by using on physical neutral surface and high-order shear deformation theory. Material properties are assumed to be temperature dependent and vary along the thickness, while Poisson’s ratio depends weakly on temperature change and position and is assumed to be a constant. It is worth noting that physical neutral surface will be changed with temperature. The character of physical neutral surface higher-order shear deformation plate theory is that the displacements have special forms, stretching-bending couplings are eliminated in constitutive equations, and governing equations have the simple and similar forms as homogeneous isotropic plates. The validity of physical neutral surface higher-order shear deformation plate theory can be confirmed by comparing with related researchers’ results. Nonlinear bending approximate solutions of FGM rectangular plates with six cases of boundary conditions are given out using Ritz method, and influences played by different supported boundaries, foundation stiffnesses, thermal environmental conditions, and volume fraction index are discussed in detail.     

Size-dependent shear buckling response of FGM skew nanoplates modeled via different homogenization schemes

The size effects on the shear buckling behaviors of skew nanoplates made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are presented. The material properties are supposed to be changed uniformly from the ceramic phase to the metal one along the plate thickness. To estimate the associated effective material properties, various homogenization schemes including the Reuss model, the Voigt model, the Mori-Tanaka model, and the Hashin-Shtrikman bound model are used. The nonlocal elasticity theory together with the oblique coordinate system is applied to the higher-order shear deformation plate theory to develop a size-dependent plate model for the shear buckling analysis of FGM skew nanoplates. The Ritz method using Gram-Schmidt shape functions is used to solve the size-dependent problem. It is found that the significance of the nonlocality in the reduction of the shear buckling load of an FGM skew nanoplate increases for a higher value of the material property gradient index. Also, by increasing the skew angle, the critical shear buckling load of an FGM skew nanoplate enhances. This pattern becomes a bit less significant for a higher value of the material property gradient index. Furthermore, among various homogenization models, the Voigt and Reuss models in order estimate the overestimated and underestimated shear buckling loads, and the difference between them reduces by increasing the aspect ratio of the skew nanoplate.     

Thermoelastic contact instability of a functionally graded layer and a homogeneous half-plane

The conductive heat transfer between two elastic bodies in the static contact can cause the system to be unstable due to the interaction between the thermoelastic distortion and pressure-dependent thermal contact resistance. This paper investigates the thermoelastic contact instability of a functionally graded material (FGM) layer and a homogeneous half-plane using the perturbation method. The FGM layer and half-plane are exposed to a uniform heat flux and are pressed together by a uniform pressure. The material properties of the FGM layer vary exponentially along the thickness direction. The characteristic equation governing the thermoelastic stability behavior is obtained to determine the stability boundary. The effects of the gradient index, layer thickness and material combination on the critical heat flux are discussed in detail through a parametric study. Results indicate that the thermoelastic stability behavior can be modified by adjusting the gradient index of the FGM layer.

Post-buckling analysis of FGM annular sector plates based on three dimensional elasticity graded finite elements

In this article, post-buckling and non-linear bending analysis of functionally graded annular sector plates based on three dimensional theory of elasticity in conjunction with non-linear Green strain tensor is considered. In-plane normal compressive loads have been applied to either radial, circumferential, or all edges of annular sector plates. Material properties are graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of constituents while Poisson׳s ratio is assumed to be constant. The governing equations are developed based on the principle of minimum total potential energy and solved based on graded finite element method. Non-linear equilibrium equations are solved based on iterative Newton–Raphson method. The effects of material gradient exponent, different sector angles, thickness ratio, loading condition and two different boundary conditions on the post-buckling behavior of FGM annular sector plates have been investigated. Results denote that due to the stretching–bending coupling effects of the FGMs, the post-buckling behavior of movable simply supported FGM plates is not of the bifurcation-type buckling. Moreover, FGM annular sector plates subjected to uniaxial compression at radial edges show a non-linear bending behavior with unique and stable equilibrium paths following a flattening feature.     

Bending of functionally graded cantilever beam with power-law non-linearity subjected to an end force

A realistic beam structure often exhibits material and geometrical non-linearity, in particular for those made of metals. The mechanical behaviors of a non-linear functionally graded-material (FGM) cantilever beam subjected to an end force are investigated by using large and small deformation theories. Young's modulus is assumed to be depth-dependent. For an FGM beam of power-law hardening, the location of the neutral axis is determined. The effects of depth-dependent Young's modulus and non-linearity parameter on the deflections and rotations of the FGM beams are analyzed. Our results show that different gradient indexes may change the bending stiffness of the beam so that an FGM beam may bear larger applied load than a homogeneous beam when choosing appropriate gradients. Moreover, the bending stress distribution in an FGM beam is completely different from that in a homogeneous beam. The bending stress arrives at the maximum tensile stress at an internal position rather than at the surface. Obtained results are useful in safety design of linear and non-linear beams.
