The steady state creep behaviour of a rotating FGM disc having linearly varying thickness has been investigated. The disc is assumed to be made of functionally graded composite containing non-linearly varying radial distribution of silicon carbide particles in a matrix of pure aluminum. The creep behaviour of the composite has been described by threshold stress based law. The effect of varying the disc thickness gradient has been analyzed on the stresses and strain rates in the FGM disc. It is observed that the radial and tangential stresses induced in the FGM disc decrease throughout with the increase in thickness gradient of the disc. The strain rates also decrease with the increase in thickness gradient of the FGM disc, with a relatively higher decrease near the inner radius. The increase in disc thickness gradient results in relatively uniform distribution of strain rates and hence reduces the chances of distortion in the disc.

Analysis of creep stress-strain relationships is made for horizontally supported furnace tubes including the effect of tube weight and internal pressure. Steady-state creep effects through the tube wall due to axially symmetrical heal input are also analyzed for these conditions. The original Bailey approach to the pressure problem only is extended to the larger scope undertaken. Maximum permissible tube spans are derived based on accepted criteria for creep stress and deflections. The results of this work indicate that maximum allowable tube spans may often be theoretically increased beyond present usual design limits except for a few specific materials and instances where short spans are required at very high temperatures. In actual tube design, consideration should be given to experience in operation of any particular type of furnace so that secondary effects may be minimized. Increased economies in costs and flexibility in furnace layout as well as rational span determination are expected from use of these results.

The influence of the thermal residual stress and reinforcement geometry on the creep behavior of a composite disc has been analyzed in this paper. The creep analysis in a rotating disc made of Al-SiC (particle/whisker) composite having hyperbolically varying thickness has been carried out using anisotropic Hoffman yield criterion and results obtained are compared with those using Hill's criterion ignoring difference in yield stresses. The steady state creep behavior has been described by Sherby's creep law. The creep parameters characterizing difference in yield stresses have been used from the available experimental results in literature. It is observed that the stresses are not much affected by the presence of thermal residual stress, while thermal residual stress introduces significant change in the strain rates in an anisotropic rotating disc. Secondly, it is noticed that the steady state creep rates in whisker reinforced disc with/without residual stress are observed to be significantly lower than those observed in particle reinforced disc with/without residual stress. It is concluded that the presence of residual stress in an anisotropic disc with varying thickness needs attention for designing a disc.

AbstractIn the present study, a closed-form analytical solution for the steady-state creep stresses of rotating thick cylindrical pressure vessels made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) is carried out. Norton's law governs the creep response of the material. Exact solutions for stresses and strain rate are obtained under the plane strain condition. How different material parameters involved in Norton's law affect radial and circumferential stresses together with the equivalent strain rate in rotating thick-walled cylindrical vessels under internal pressure is investigated. The result obtained shows that the property of FGMs has a significant influence on the equivalent creep strain rate and stresses distributions along the radial direction.
