Description

A method of macroscopic material tailoring is formulated in order to reduce globally the thermal stresses induced in the functionally gradient materials (FGMs), with the help of the direct sensitivity analysis and the optimization technique associated with the heat conduction/thermal stress analysis by means of incremental FEM. The spatial distribution of the volume fraction of phases is optimally determined. A hollow cylinder in a ceramics-metal FMG is tailored successfully when it is subjected to an asymmetric thermal boundary/initial condition. (author). 8 refs., 12 figs., 1 tab
