Radially Symmetric Steady State Thermal and Mechanical Stresses of a Poro FGM Hollow Sphere

الملخص EN

A general solution for the one-dimensional steady-state thermal and mechanical stresses in a hollow thick sphere made of porous functionally graded material (FGPM) is presented.

The temperature distribution is assumed to be a function of radius, with general thermal and mechanical boundary conditions on the inside and outside surfaces of the sphere.

The material properties, except Poisson's ratio, are assumed to vary along the radius r according to a power law function.

The analytical solution of the heat conduction equation and the Navier equation lead to the temperature profile, radial displacement, radial stress, and hoop stress as a function of radial direction.
