Abstract

In this paper, a theoretical solution for time-dependent thermo-elastic creep analysis of a functionally graded (FG) thick-walled cylinder based on the first-order shear deformation theory is presented. The cylinder is subjected to the non-uniform internal pressure and distributed temperature field due to steady-state heat conduction from inner to outer surface of the cylinder. Mechanical and thermal properties except Poisson's ratio are assumed to vary along the thickness direction based on a power function. The creep constitutive model is on the basis of the Norton's law. The effects of the temperature gradient and FG grading index on the creep stresses of the cylinder are investigated. A numerical solution using finite element method is also presented and good agreement was found. Although previous publications presented analytical solutions for creep analysis of thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessels under uniform pressure, to the best of the authors' knowledge, so far, no analytical solution has been provided for time-dependent creep analysis of FG cylinder under non-uniform internal pressure. The results of this study are applicable for designing optimum FG thick-walled cylinder.
