description |
Functionally graded materials (FGM) are composite materials with microstructure
gradation optimized for the functioning of engineering components. For the case of
fibrous composites, the fiber density is varied spatially, leading to variable material
properties tailored to specific optimization requirements. There is an increasing
demand for the use of such intelligent materials in space and aircraft industries. The
current preferred methods to study engineering components made of FGM are
mainly modeling particularly those that are finite element (FE) based on rectangular
and circular plate/shell with constant thickness and study on the structures with
nonlinearity on shape have not yet sufficiently matured. Hence this thesis reports the
research study on postbuckling and stability analyzing of FGM plate/shell with four
different cut-out shapes including circular, square, horizontal elliptical and verticalelliptical
cutout shape under different boundary conditions. Comparison for FE
model performed in two stages, including FGM plate and Postbuckling of FGM
plate, to verify the model and Postbuckling of model. The verified model was used in
current research study for analyzing the FGM plate with different cutout shapes.
Validation of the results of this study has been done by verifying the results with
Postbuckling results of aluminum plate. The pustbuckling analysis of FGM Plate
subjected to edge loading (edge shortening and edge compression) was performed
through finite element software ABAQUS.
The structures considered in this study are functionally graded in a single direction
and elastic region was assumed for materials which were used within all analysis
stages in this research. This study has shown that tightening the boundary of plate
increases the stability of the plate and the plate with elliptical shape cutout has the
highest Postbuckling load which means the plate with vertical elliptical cutout shape
has the higher stability among the others. The elliptical cutout shape is the best shape
for having higher mechanical stability and Postbuckling resilience. |
