Abstract
Geometric nonlinearity and temperature dependent material properties are accounted for in the theoretical analysis of time dependent thermo-elastic response of thin functionally graded material (FGM) SUS316-Al2O3 beam subjected to various heat loads. A two dimensional Lagrangian rectangular finite element is used to obtain the temperature distribution on the transverse plane of the beam. Nonlinear thermo-elastic deflection and thermal stresses are evaluated for various structural and thermal boundary conditions. Thermo-elastic oscillations are observed in case of beams subjected to step, concentrated line and shock heat load whereas thermo-elastic deflection is observed for beams subjected to moving heat load. As the thermal load increases, the nonlinear thermal deflection of FGM beam are higher compared to linear analysis. In general, temperature dependency of material properties influence the amplitude of thermal oscillations. High thermal stresses are induced in beams with pin-pin and clamp-pin boundary condition as compared to hinge-hinge beam.
