Nonaxisymmetric Mechanical and Thermal Stresses in FGPPM Hollow Cylinder

In this paper, the general solution of steady-state 2D nonaxisymmetric mechanical and thermal stresses and electrical and mechanical displacements of a hollow thick cylinder made of fluid-saturated functionally graded porous piezoelectric material (FGPPM) is presented. The general form of thermal and mechanical boundary conditions is considered on the inside and outside surfaces. A direct method is used to solve the heat conduction equation and the nonhomogenous system of partial differential Navier equations, using the complex Fourier series and the power law functions method. The material properties, except Poisson's ratio, are assumed to depend on the radial variable and they are expressed as power law functions along the radial direction. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4007034]
