چکیده

We use the Airy stress function to derive exact solutions for plane strain deformations of a functionally graded (FG) hollow cylinder with the inner and the outer surfaces subjected to different boundary conditions, and the cylinder composed of an isotropic and incompressible linear elastic material. For the shear modulus given by either a power law or an exponential function of the radius r, we derive explicit expressions for stresses, the hydrostatic pressure and displacements. Conversely, we find the variation with r of the shear modulus for a linear combination of the radial and the hoop stresses to have a preassigned variation in the cylinder; this inverse problem is usually called material tailoring. The shear modulus found while solving the inverse problem must be positive everywhere. Results for a few problems are computed and presented graphically. It seems that the Airy stress function approach is used here for the first time to analyze two-dimensional problems for incompressible materials. When studying axisymmetric deformations of an FG cylinder, it is found that for the hoop stress to be uniform through the cylinder thickness the shear modulus must be proportional to the radial coordinate r as found earlier by Batra [Batra RC. Optimal design of functionally graded incompressible linear elastic cylinders and spheres. AIAAJ 2008;46(8):2005–7.] and for the maximum in-plane shear stress to be constant the shear modulus must vary as r. The expression for the maximum in-plane shear stress in terms of pressures and the radii of the inner and the outer surfaces of the cylinder is a universal result valid for all materials for which the shear modulus is proportional to r. For a hollow cylinder fixed on the inner surface and subjected to tangential tractions on the outer surface (or vice versa) the through-the-thickness in-plane shear stress distribution is also universal and is determined by surface tractions and the outer radius of the cylinder; it is independent of the spatial variation of the shear modulus. 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Elastic-Plastic Transition of Pressurized Functionally Graded Orthotropic Cylinder using Seth’s Transition Theory

In this paper the radial deformation and the corresponding stresses in a functionally graded orthotropic hollow cylinder with the variation in thickness and density according to power law and rotating about its axis under pressure is investigated by using Seth's transition theory. The material of the cylinder is assumed to be non-homogeneous and orthotropic. This theory helps to achieve better ...

Elastoplastic torsion of hollow FGM circular shaft

In many cases, a torsional shaft may be a thick-walled radially inhomogeneous cylindrical object. The hollow shafts made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are such kind of compositions which were studied in this paper. Cylindrical FG shafts are composed of ceramic and metallic parts with power function distribution across the radial direction. The ceramic phase is isotropic elastic and th...
