Dynamic Thermal Buckling of Functionally Graded Spherical Caps
Publication: Journal of Engineering Mechanics
Volume 134, Issue 2
Abstract
In the present work, dynamic buckling behavior of clamped functionally graded spherical caps suddenly exposed to a thermal field is studied using the finite-element procedure. The material properties are graded in the thickness direction. The temperature load corresponding to a sudden jump in the maximum average displacement in the time history of the shell structure is taken as the dynamic buckling temperature. Numerical study is carried out to highlight the influences of shell geometries and material gradient index on the critical buckling temperature.
