One of the main interests of fracture mechanics in functionally graded materials is the influence of such an inhomogeneity on crack propagation processes. Using the Griffith' energy principle, the change of energy has to be calculated, if the crack starts to propagate. In homogeneous linear-elastic

This paper considers the mode III crack problem in functionally graded piezoelectric materials. The mechanical and the electrical properties of the medium are considered for a class of functional forms for which the equilibrium equations have an analytical solution. The problem is solved by means of
The dynamic response of a functionally graded orthotropic strip with an edge crack perpendicular to the boundaries is studied. The material properties are assumed to vary continuously along the thickness direction. Laplace and Fourier transforms are applied to reduce the problem to a singular integr
Asymptotic expansion for the out of plane displacement field around a crack propagating along the gradient in a functionally graded material is developed. The irregular behavior of one of the terms in the expansion at low crack speeds is further examined and a remedial solution, which is well behave
This paper describes crack growth resistance simulation in a ceramic/metal functionally graded material (FGM) using a cohesive zone ahead of the crack front. The plasticity in the background (bulk) material follows J 2 flow theory with the flow properties determined by a volume fraction based, elast
