Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Functionally Graded Material Based on Finite Element Method

摘要

In this paper, the fracture problem of functionally graded material (FGM) was studied, and the shear modulus was assumed to be an exponential function. The influences of inhomogeneous parameter, crack size and crack angle on the stress intensity factors have been analyzed by the finite element method. The results indicated that the stress intensity factors of mode I decreased with the increasing of the crack angle, the stress intensity factors of mode II increased with the increasing of the crack angle, and the crack stress intensity factor of mode I and mode II decreased with the increasing of the inhomogeneous parameters at crack tips, which was of certain directive significance for the FGM design and manufacture in the actual engineering.
