Abstract:

This article focused on the stress analysis of an edge crack in a thin hallow rotating functionally graded material (FGM) disk. The disk is assumed to be isotropic with exponentially varying elastic modulus in the radial direction. A comprehensive study is carried out for various combinations of the crack length and orientation with the different gradation of materials. The effect of non-uniform coefficient of thermal expansion on the distribution of stress intensity factor is also studied. The results which are normalized for the advantage of non-dimensional analysis show that the material gradation, the crack orientation and the crack length have significant influence on the amount of stress intensity factors.

FGM ROTATING DISC FABRICATE BY Al/Al2O3

Our aim of is to develop a processing method for a rotating disc made of functionally graded materials (FGM), by stacking the slurry, layer by layer in a radial direction. A three-layer functionally graded material of Al/Al2O3 is fabricated with compositions of 10, 20, 30 vol.% Al2O3. The ceramic composition increases from the discs inner (centre) to the outer. The combination of these material...

String-Wrapped Rotating Disks

Let the centers of a finite number of disjoint, closed disks be pinned to the plane, but with each free to rotate about its center. Given an arrangement of such disks with each labeled + or −, we investigate the question of whether they can be all wrapped by a single loop of string so that, when the string is taut and circulates, it rotates by friction all the (+)-disks counterclockwise and all...

Rotating Relativistic Thin Disks

Two families of models of rotating relativistic disks based on TaubNUT and Kerr metrics are constructed using the well-known “displace, cut and reflect” method. We find that for disks built from a generic stationary axially symmetric metric the “sound velocity”, (pressure/density)1/2, is equal to the geometric mean of the prograde and retrograde geodesic circular velocities of test particles mo...

Lyman Edge Features from Accretion Disks Around Maximally Rotating Supermassive Black Holes

We calculate the amplitude of the Lyman discontinuity for an accretion disk around a maximally rotating black hole. The locally emitted disk spectrum is computed with a previously developed numerical model (Sincell & Krolik 1998) and then a new general relativistic ray-tracing code is used to determine the observed spectra as a function of inclination angle, θo. We find that Lyman discontinuiti...

Electrovacuum Static Counter - Rotating Relativistic Dust Disks

A detailed study of the Counter-Rotating Model (CRM) for generic electrostatic (magnetostatic) axially symmetric thin disks without radial pressure is presented. We find a general constraint over the counter-rotating tangential velocities needed to cast the surface energy-momentum tensor of the disk as the superposition of two counter-rotating charged dust fluids. We then show that this constra...

Making Spirals with Counter - Rotating Disks 3

A single merger scenario for making galaxies such as NGC 4550 possessing equal coplanar counter-rotating stellar disks is investigated by collisionless N-body technique. The scenario is successful in producing an axisymmetric disk made of two almost equal counter-rotating populations. The final disk shows a clear bimodal line profile in the outer part, which demonstrates that disk-disk mergers ...
