Navier’s equations for FGMs were derived, and were semi-discretized into a system of ordinary differential (equations(ODEs)) defined on discrete lines with the finite difference. By solving the system of ODEs, the solutions to the problem can be obtained. An example of three-point bending was given to demonstrate the application of MOL for a crack problem in the FGM. The computational results show that the more accurate results can be obtained with less computational time and resources. The obvious difficulties of numerical method for crack problems in FGMs, such as the effect of material nonhomogeneity and the existence of high gradient stress and strain near a crack tip, can be overcome without additional consideration if this method is adopted.展开更多

The thermal shock resistance of the Al 2O 3-TiC functionally gradient ceramics FG-1 was evaluated by water quenching and subsequent three-point bending tests of flexural strength diminution. Comparisons were made with results from parallel experiments conducted using a homogeneous Al 2O 3-TiC ceramics. Functionally gradient ceramics exhibited higher retained strength under all thermal shock temperature differences compared to homogeneous ceramics, indicating the higher thermal shock resistance. The experimental results were supported by the calculation of transient thermal stress field. The cutting performance of the Al 2O 3-TiC functionally gradient ceramic tool FG-1 was also investigated in rough turning the cylindrical surface of exhaust valve of diesel engine in comparison with that of a common Al 2O 3-TiC ceramic tool LT55. The results indicated that the tool life of FG-1 increased by 50 percent over that of LT55. Tool life of LT55 was mainly controlled by thermal shock cracking which was accompanied by mechanical shock. While tool life of FG-1 was mainly controlled by mechanical fatigue crack extension rather than thermal shock cracking, revealing the less thermal shock susceptibility of functionally gradient ceramics than that of common ceramics.展开更多
