Numerical investigation of flexural strength for functionally graded composite and laminated composite materials

Abstract

Material properties that can be done to show a smooth and constant change starting with one surface then onto the next, along these lines taking out interface issues and alleviating concentrations of thermal stress. In the present work, a polymeric composite with functionally graded mode and their deflection behavior were studied using analysis through Finite element analysis via ANSYS 16.1 and visual basics 6.0 language depending on Mori Tanka formula and classical laminated theory in order to decide the stiffer material under flexural load. The proposed tests were essentially using the square plates under static uniform stress. The two kinds of composites were involved in a paired of materials with constant volume fraction. The outcomes revealed that stiffness of FGM less than laminate composite.
