Stress Analysis of Pressurized Thick Truncated Conical Shells with varying Modulus of Elasticity as Power Function
Abstract: Finite element method is applied using Ansys 14.0 Mechanical APDL for axisymmetric thick walled truncated cone made of Functionally Graded Material (FGM). The cone has finite length, and is subjected to axisymmetric hydrostatic internal pressure. The material is assumed to be isotropic with constant poisson's ratio and radially continuously varying elastic modulus along the thickness with a power function. Using this method the truncated cone under generalized clamped-clamped conditions has …

Flexure of Thick Cantilever Beams using Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory
Abstract: A trigonometric shear deformation theory for flexural analysis of thick beams, taking into account transverse shear deformation effects, is developed. The number of variables in the present theory is same as that in the first order shear deformation theory. The sinusoidal function is used in displacement field in terms of thickness coordinate to represent the shear deformation effects. The noteworthy feature of this theory is that the transverse shear stresses …
