Stress Analysis of Thick-Wall Hollow Functionally Graded Material Based on Plane Strain Problem

In this study, the mechanical behaviours of thick-walled hollow functionally graded material (FGM) cylinder subjected to uniform pressures at inner and outer surfaces are proposed. The FGM has variable geometric profile, thickness properties like elastic modulus mass density all assumed vary radially according exponentially-varying functions in radial direction. With help infinitesimal elasticity theory plane strain assumption, analytic solutions stress deformation Numerical example is given show performance between FEM homogeneous cylinder. Finally, summary future work presented end paper.
