Modeling and Design

  • Chapter
Functionally Graded Materials

Part of the book series: Materials Technology Series ((MTEC,volume 5))

Abstract

With the advent of powerful computers and robust software, computational modeling has emerged as a very informative and cost effective tool for materials design and analysis. Modeling often can both eliminate costly experiments and provide more information than can be obtained experimentally. Computational modeling has clearly played an important role in FGM research to date, and because of the considerable complexity involved, is expected to play an even greater role in future developments. This chapter introduces some of the common approaches used in modeling FGMs, identifies the major difficulties involved, and, it is hoped, provides useful guidance for future simulation efforts. It focuses mainly on continuum models of the bulk response of FGMs due to thermal or mechanical loading.
