Numerical Elastic Analysis of Functionally Graded (FG) Polar Orthotropic and Exponentially Varying-Thickness Rotating Disks via Combined Complementary Functions and the Transfer Matrix Methods
Abstract:In the present paper, the transfer matrix method (TMM) is to be employed for the first time in the open literature for the elastic analysis of variable-thickness disks made of functionally graded (FG) two orthotropic materials. Those materials are assumed to be continuously radially functionally graded (FG) based on the Voigt rule of mixture with two models. An exponential disk profile with two parameters is considered. Effects of the different boundary conditions (free-free, fixed-free, and fixed-fixed) and i… Show more
