Abstract :
An analytical model is developed for prediction of thermal residual stresses, arising from the fabrication of exponential functionally graded material (simply called E-FGM) systems. The thermomechanical properties of functionally graded layers are assumed to vary exponentially through the thickness. Residual stresses were found to increase when fully ceramic and/or fully metal regions are included in the structure, adjoining the graded zone. The effects of temperature dependent elastic and thermal expansion characteristics of constituents on residual stress were found to be small.
