As an example, numerical calculations are carried out for an isotropic elastic hollow cylinder made of steel, bonded to a piezoelectric layer of cadmium selenide. Some numerical results for the temperature change, the stress and the electric potential distributions in a transient state are shown in figures. Furthermore, the influence of thickness of the piezoelectric layer or the isotropic elastic layer upon the temperature change, stresses and electric potential is investigated.

Weight function method for transient thermomechanical fracture analysis of a functionally graded hollow cylinder possessing a circumferential crack

This article introduces a weight function method for fracture analysis of a circumferentially cracked functionally graded hollow cylinder subjected to transient thermomechanical loading. Analytical solutions for transient temperature and stress distributions in the uncracked cylinder are derived by applying finite Hankel transformation. These solutions are utilized to determine stress acting on the faces of the circumferential crack in the local perturbation problem. Thermomechanical material properties are assumed to be power functions of the radial coordinate in the derivations. Coefficients of the weight function are found using reference stress intensity factors computed through the finite element method. Domain form of the J-integral is used in the finite element calculations. Comparisons of the numerical results calculated by the proposed weight function method to those generated by finite element analysis demonstrate the high level of accuracy attained by the application of the developed procedures. Further parametric analyses are presented to illustrate the influences of dimensionless time, crack depth to thickness ratio, power law index, and convection coefficient upon transient mode I thermomechanical stress intensity factors.     

Exact and numerical elastodynamic solutions for thick-walled functionally graded cylinders subjected to pressure shocks

In the present paper, analytical and numerical elastodynamic solutions are developed for long thick-walled functionally graded cylinders subjected to arbitrary dynamic and shock pressures. Both transient dynamic response and elastic wave propagation characteristics are studied in these non-homogeneous structures. Variations of the material properties across the thickness are described according to both polynomial and power law functions. A numerically consistent transfinite element formulation is presented for both functions whereas the exact solution is presented for the power law function. The FGM cylinder is not divided into isotropic sub-cylinders. An approach associated with dividing the dynamic radial displacement expression into quasi-static and dynamic parts and expansion of the transient wave functions in terms of a series of the eigenfunctions is employed to propose the exact solution. Results are obtained for various exponents of the functions of the material properties distributions, various radius ratios, and various dynamic and shock loads.
