Abstract
In this paper by using a multi-layered approach based on the theory of laminated composites, the solution of temperature in functionally graded circular hollow cylinders subjected to transient thermal boundary conditions are presented. The material properties are assumed to be temperature-independent and radially dependent. The cylinder has finite length and is subjected to axisymmetric thermal loads. It is assumed that the functionally graded circular hollow cylinder is composed of N fictitious layers and the properties of each layer are assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic. Employing Laplace transform techniques and series solving method for two-dimensional heat conduction equation in the cylinder, solutions for the variation of temperature with time as well as temperature distribution through the cylinder are obtained.
