The method of fundamental solutions for transient heat conduction in functionally graded materials: some special cases
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) is extended to solve some special cases of the problem of transient heat conduction in functionally graded materials. First, the problem is transformed to a heat equation with constant coefficients using a suitable new transformation and then the MFS together with the Tikhonov regularization method is used to solve the resulting equation.

The simple boundary element method for transient heat conduction in functionally graded materials
This paper presents a ‘‘simple’’ boundary element method for transient heat conduction in functionally graded materials, which leads to a boundary-only formulation without any domain discretization. For a broad range of functional material variation (quadratic, exponential and trigonometric) of thermal conductivity and specific heat, the non-homogeneous problem can be transformed into the stand...
full textFundamental Solutions and Functionally Graded Materials
A fundamental solution (or Green’s function) is a singular solution of a governing partial differential equation (PDE). They can be constructed easily when the PDE has constant coefficients. They are useful for reducing boundary-value problems to boundary integral equations (BIEs). We begin by describing simple properties of fundamental solutions, and then comment on the use and construction of...

A meshless method based on the local Petrov-Galerkin approach is proposed for the solution of steady-state and transient heat conduction problems in a continuously nonhomogeneous anisotropic medium. The Laplace transform is used to treat the time dependence of the variables for transient problems. The analyzed domain is covered by small subdomains with a simple geometry. A weak formulation for ...

Using Donnell-type shell theory a simple and exact procedure is presented for linear buckling analysis of functionally graded conical shells under axial compressive loads and external pressure. The solution is in the form of a power series in terms of a particularly convenient coordinate system. By analyzing the buckling of a series of conical shells, under various boundary conditions and diffe...

We propose an efficient boundary collocation method for the solution of certain twoand three-dimensional problems of steady-state heat conduction in isotropic bimaterials. In particular, in two dimensions we consider the case where a circular region composed of one material is coated with an annular region of another material. In three dimensions, we examine the corresponding case for axisymmet...
