Investigation of the thermal-elastic problem in cracked semi-infinite FGM under thermal shock using hyperbolic heat conduction theory

摘要

In this paper, a thermoelastic analytical model is established for a functionally graded half-plane containing a crack under a thermal shock in the framework of hyperbolic heat conduction theory. The moduli of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are assumed to vary exponentially with the coordinates. By employing the Fourier transform and Laplace transform, coupled with singular integral equations, the governing partial differential equations under mixed, thermo-mechanical boundary conditions are solved numerically. For both the temperature distribution and transient stress intensity factors (SIFs) in FGMs, the results of hyperbolic heat conduction model are significantly different than those of Fourier's Law, which should be considered carefully in designing FGMs.
