Analytical method for steady temperature and thermal stresses of a FGM hollow cylinder with temperature-dependent material properties

This paper presents the analytical calculation models of steady temperature and thermal stresses in a functionally graded material (FGM) hollow cylinder with temperature dependent properties. The constitutive material properties are assumed exponentially variable along thickness direction. An example has been given to check the influence of temperature dependent properties. Results show obviously that when the properties are temperature dependent, the stresses have distinct difference with those calculated with constant properties.
