Following a review of the processing of functionally graded metals and metal-ceramic
composites in Part 1; this Part 2 of the two part series focuses on the thermomechanical …

This paper provides a definition and classification of functionally graded materials (FGM).
FGM manufacturing processes based on the modification of existing techniques like powder …

The dynamic thermoelastic response of functionally graded cylinders and plates is studied.
Thermomechanical coupling is included in the formulation, and a finite element model of the …

The book is divided into two parts dealing with the fundamental issues of processing
(Chapter 2) and the thermomechanical response (Chapter 3) of a FGM. Chapter 1 provides …

An elastic, rectangular, and simply supported, functionally graded material (FGM) plate of
medium thickness subjected to transverse loading has been investigated. The Poisson's …

Graded finite elements are presented within the framework of a generalized isoparametric
formulation. Such elements possess a spatially varying material property field, eg Young's …

Free vibration of functionally graded material sandwich rectangular plates with simply
supported and clamped edges is studied based on the three-dimensional linear theory of …

Functionally graded coatings such as thermal barrier coatings on advanced metals and
alloys can sustain multiple cracking upon thermal and mechanical loading. A special feature …

Intelligent application of materials with site-specific properties will undoubtedly allow more
efficient components and use of resources. Despite such materials being ubiquitous in …

In this paper, the crack-tip fields in a general nonhomogeneous material are summarized.
The fracture toughness and R-curve of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are studied …
