The elastostatic problem of a surface crack in a graded coating bonded to a homogeneous substrate under general loading conditions is considered. The coating is graded along the thickness direction and modeled as a nonhomogeneous medium with an isotropic stress-strain law. The problem is solved under the assumption of plane strain or generalized plane stress conditions. The crack surfaces are subjected to arbitrary loadings which give rise to mixed fracture modes which can be uncoupled due to the fact that the crack axis is parallel to the material gradient. Therefore, the opening and sliding mode problems may be formulated separately. For each problem, the solution of the composite medium may be determined by obtaining the solution of the homogeneous substrate and that of the graded layer. The latter solution may be expressed as the sum of two solutions, namely an infinite graded medium with a crack and a graded strip without a crack. The resulting mixed-boundary value problem is reduced to a set of two uncoupled singular integral equations which are solved numerically using Jacobi polynomials. The main objective of the paper is to study the effect of the layer thickness and nonhomogeneity parameter on the crack tip mixed-mode stress intensity factors for the purpose of gaining better understanding on the behavior of graded coatings.

Cracked elastic annulus bonded to rigid cylinder
Yılmaz, Engin; Geçit, M. Ruşen; Department of Engineering Sciences (2005)
In this study, a long annulus bonded to a rigid cylinder containing an axisymmetric circumferential crack of width (d-c) at the midplane is considered. The material of the annulus is assumed to be linearly elastic and isotropic. The external surface of the annulus is free of stress. Surfaces of the crack are subject to distributed compressive loads. The Fourier and Hankel transform techniques are used to solve the governing equations which are reduced to a singular integral equation for crack surface displa...
Mechanics of dynamic contact of coated substrate and rigid cylindrical ended punch
Balci, Mehmet N.; Dağ, Serkan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-05-01)
The dynamic contact mechanics of isotropic elastic coating bonded to homogeneous substrate was examined. The coating is indented by a sliding rigid punch of a cylindrical profile. The rigid punch moves over the coating at a steady subsonic speed. To determine contact stresses, an analytical method based on the singular integral equation technique is put forward. Governing partial differential equations are derived considering general theory of elastodynamics. The influences of dimensionless punch speed, mas...
A surface crack in a graded coating subjected to sliding frictional contact
Dağ, Serkan; GÜLER, MEHMET ALİ; Gulgec, Mufit (Elsevier BV, 2012-01-01)
This article presents an analytical method developed to conduct fracture analysis of functionally graded coatings that are under the effect of contact stresses. The geometric model considered comprises a functionally graded coating, which possesses a surface crack and is perfectly bonded to a homogeneous half-plane. A two-step solution procedure is put forward in which the contact and crack problems are treated separately. First, the graded coating is assumed to be in sliding frictional contact with a rigid...
Three dimensional fracture analysis of FGM coatings under thermomechanical loading
Yildirim, B; Dağ, Serkan; Erdogan, E (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-04-01)
The main objective of this study is to examine the three dimensional surface crack problems in functionally graded coatings subjected to mode I mechanical or transient thermal loading. The surface cracks are assumed to have a semi-elliptical crack front profile of arbitrary aspect ratio. The cracks are embedded in the functionally graded material (FGM) coating which is perfectly bonded to a homogeneous substrate. A three dimensional finite element method is used to solve the thermal and structural problems....
ELASTIC-PLASTIC EXPANSION OF A SPHERICAL-SHELL WITH NONLINEAR HARDENING
GAMER, U; TEKKAYA, AE (1989-01-01)
Subject of this paper is the quasi-analytical treatment of the elastic-plastic spherical shell whose inner surface is heated slowly. The hardening behavior of the material is presumed isotropic, but it need not be specified beyond that. A first plastic region forms at the inner surface, and, for not too thick-walled shells, a second plastic region appears at the outer surface. The general results are specialized to linear hardening and thereafter to Swift's hardening law with the power one half. Numerical r...
