Abstract
In this work, stochastic perturbation-based vibration characteristics of cracked bi-material and functionally graded material (FGM) domain with uncertain material properties are investigated using the extended finite element method. The level set function is implemented to track the geometrical discontinuities. The partition of unity-based extrinsic enrichment technique is employed to model the crack and material interface. The exponential law is used to model the graded material properties of FGM. The First-order perturbation technique (FOPT) is implemented to predict the standard deviation of natural frequency for the given uncertainties in the material properties. The numerical results are presented to show the effect of geometrical discontinuities and material randomness on vibration characteristics.
