Abstract
Functionally gradient materials are one of the most widely used materials. The objective of this research work is to perform a thermo-mechanical analysis of functionally gradient material square laminated plate made of Aluminum / Zirconia and compare with pure metal and ceramic. The plates are assumed to have isotropic, two-constituent material distribution through the thickness, and the modulus of elasticity of the plate is assumed to vary according to a power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. To achieve this objective, we shall use first shear deformation theory of plates and numerical analysis will be accomplished using finite element model prepared in ANSYS software. The laminated Functionally Gradient Material plate is divided in to layers and their associated properties are then layered together to establish the through-the-thickness variation of material properties. The displacement fields for functionally gradient material plate structures under mechanical, thermal and thermo mechanical loads are analyzed under simply supported boundary condition.
