Dynamic Response for a Functionally Graded Rectangular Plate Subjected to Thermal Shock Based on LS Theory

Article Preview

Abstract:

Thermal shock describes the way that a material exposed to a sudden change in temperature. These conditions usually take place in aerospace industry, when aircraft encounter the atmosphere layers. It also happens in combustion chamber of engines when mixture of fuel and air ignite in cylinder. Classical thermoelasticity is not capable to analyze such a problem. Therefore, generalized coupled thermoelasticity theories arose. In this article, the dynamic coupled thermoelastic response of a rectangular plate made of functionally graded material subjected to a thermal shock based on Lord-Shulman theory is studied. Using state space approach, the state equations of the problem are obtained. The plate’s boundary condition is simply support on the edges and the variation of mechanical properties is assumed to change along the thickness of the plate. The Laplace transform is applied to transform governing equations from time domain to the Laplace domain. Then by using a numerical method, the equations are solved and the results are inversed to the time domain displacement and temperature field are acquired. Results are presented for different power law indices and they are validated by previous reported literature.
