Stress Analysis of Variable Thickness FGM Rotating Disks by Element based Material Gradation under Thermomechanical Loading
Abstract: The present research work aims to analyze deformation and stresses, induced in functionally graded rotating disks of variable thicknesses. The disks are made of exponential functionally graded material, whose mechanical and physical properties vary in radial direction. Functionally gradation of the properties is achieved by element-based gradation. Uniform as well as variable thickness, namely concave profile, convex profile and linear varying profile rotating disks are analyzed for clamped-free and free-free …
