    Functionally Graded Hollow Cylinder Under Pressure and Thermal Loading: Effect of Material Parameters on Stress and Temperature Distributions
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2018) Evci, Celal; Gulgec, Mufit
    This study presents an analytical solution of stresses and displacements in a long functionally graded (FGM) hollow cylinder subjected to uniform heat generation and internal pressure. Thermo-elastic material properties of FGM cylinder continuously vary in radial direction along the thickness with a power function. The temperature distribution is assumed to vary as a function of the radial coordinate and in steady state. Stress formulation approach is employed using the Airy stress function to derive the analytical solution. In the failure analysis of FGM cylinder, Coulomb-Mohr theory is applied for the ceramic phase whereas Tresca yield criterion is used for the metal phase. The stress analysis reveals that stresses in FGM cylinder decrease considerably, compared to the homogenous one, for a particular interval of material parameters. Radial displacement analysis in FGM cylinder supports the results obtained from stress analysis. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Finite Element Analysis of Fgm Dental Crowns Using Phase-Field Approach
    (Elsevier, 2023) Sait, Ferit; Saeidi, Nazanin; Korkmaz, Turan
    Functionally graded materials (FGMs) - categorized in advanced composite materials - are specially designed to reduce the stresses and failure due to material mismatches. Advances in manufacturing techniques have brought FGMs into use in a variety of applications. However, the numerical analysis is still challenging due to the difficulties in simulations of non-homogeneous material domains of complex parts. Presenting a numerical procedure that both facilitates the implementation of material non-homogeneity in geometrically complex mediums, and increases the accuracy of the calculations using a phase-field approach, this study investigates the usage of FGMs in dental prostheses. For this purpose, a porcelain fused to metal (PFM) mandibular first molar FGM crown is simulated and analyzed under the maximum masticatory bite force, and eventually the results are compared to a PFM crown prepared conventionally.

    Elastoplastic Analysis of Functionally Graded Spherical Pressure Vessels
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2009) Akis, Tolga
    Purely elastic, partially plastic and fully plastic stress states of internally pressurized functionally graded spherical pressure vessels are investigated analytically in the framework of small deformation theory. The modulus of elasticity and the uniaxial yield limit of the spherical pressure vessel material are assumed to vary nonlinearly in the radial direction. The plastic model is based on Tresca's yield criterion and ideal plastic material behavior. It is shown that, unlike in the case of a homogeneous spherical pressure vessel, different modes of plasticization may take place due to the radial variation of the functionally grading parameters.
