The work applies topology optimisation to the design of functionally graded materials (FGMs) and materialinterfaces for thermomechanical problems. It is well known, that the mismatch in stiffness and thermal expansioncoefficient of two materials give rise to high stresses at the interface. One way to alleviate this is to use the conceptof FGMs [1]. The FGMs are here designed using t...

The purpose of this study is to examine the vibration characteristics a rotating blade whose material distribution varies in spanwise direction. Formulations for functionally graded materials and beam structural models are carried out detail results displayed several figures tables which significant source information authors working area. Different parameters such as angular speed, radius hub,...

This article presents the analysis of functionally graded thick hollow cylinders under dynamic load. The functionally graded cylinder is assumed to be made of many subcylinders. Each subcylinder is considered as an isotropic layer. Material’s properties in each layer are constant and functionally graded properties are resulted by suitable arrangement of layers in multilayer cylinder. The proper...
