The main objective of this study is to model the three dimensional surface cracking problem in Functionally Graded Material (FGM) coatings bonded to homogeneous substrates. The FGM coating is assumed to be a (ZrO2) ا (Ti-6Al-4V) layer. Homogeneous ceramic, metal ا rich, ceramic ا rich and linear variation material compositions are considered in the analyses. The surface crack is assumed to have a semi ا circular crack front profile. The surface crack problem in the FGM coating ا substrate system is examined under mechanical and transient thermal loading. Structural and thermal problems are modeled using three dimensional finite elements. Strain singularity around the crack front is simulated using collapsed 20 ا node quarter ا point brick elements. Three - dimensional displacement correlation technique is utilized to extract the stress intensity factors. The main results of the study are the stress intensity factors around the crack front for FGM coating - substrate structures subjected to uniform tension, bending, fixed ا grip tension, three point bending and transient thermal loading.

Three dimensional mixed mode fracture analysis of functionally graded materials
Köşker, Sadık; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
The main objective of this study is to model and analyze a three dimensional inclined semi-elliptic surface crack in a Functionally Graded Material (FGM) coating bonded to a homogeneous substrate with a bond coat. The parametric analyses on FGMs are based upon zirconia-yttria (ZrO2-8wt%-Y2O3) FGM coating bonded to a substrate made of a nickel-based superalloy. It is assumed that there is a nickel-chromiumaluminumzirconium (NiCrAlY) bond coat between the FGM coating and substrate. Metal-rich, linear variatio...
Analytical solution of a crack problem in a radially graded FGM
Çetin, Suat; Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
The objective of this study is to determine stress intensity factors (SIFs) for a crack in a radially graded FGM layer on a substrate. Functionally graded coating with an edge crack perpendicular to the interface and a homogeneous substrate are bonded together. In order to make the problem analytically tractable, geometry is modeled as an FGM strip attached to a homogeneous layer. Introducing the elastic foundation underneath the homogeneous layer, an FGM coating on a thin walled cylinder can be modeled. At...
Fatigue crack growth analysis models for funcionally graded materials
Sabuncuoğlu, Barış; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006)
The objective of this study is to develop crack growth analysis methods for functionally graded materials under mode I cyclic loading by using finite element technique. The study starts with the analysis of test specimens which are given in ASTM standard E399. The material properties of specimens are assumed to be changing along the thickness direction according to a presumed variation function used for the modeling of functionally graded materials. The results of the study reveal the influence of different...
Three dimensional fracture analysis of fillet welds
Fıçıcı, Ferhan; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
The aim of this study is to model three dimensional surface crack problems in fillet welds. It is assumed that weld material has the same material properties with the sheet metals. The surface crack is considered to occur at two regions; one at the weld root and the other at the weld toe. The surface crack is assumed to have a semi elliptical crack front profile. The surface crack problem is analyzed under mechanical loading and the models are built up by three dimensional finite elements. Around the crack...
Transient dynamic response of viscoelastic cylinders enclosed in filament wound cylindrical composites
Şen, Özge; Turhan, Doğan; Department of Engineering Sciences (2005)
In this study, transient dynamic response of viscoelastic cylinders enclosed in filament wound cylindrical composites is investigated. Thermal effects, in addition to mechanical effects, are taken into consideration. A generalized thermoelasticity theory which incorporates the temperature rate among the constitutive variables and is referred to as temperature-rate dependent thermoelasticity theory is employed. This theory predicts finite heat propagation speeds. The body considered in this thesis consists o...
