Mechanics of Functionally Graded Material Structures is an authoritative and fresh look at various functionally graded materials, customizing them with various structures. The book is devoted to tailoring material properties to the needed structural performance. The authors pair materials with the appropriate structures based upon their purpose and use.

Material grading of structures depending upon thickness, axial and polar directions are discussed. Three dimensional analysis of rectangular plates made of functional graded materials and vibrational tailoring of inhomogeneous beams and circular plates are both covered in great detail. The authors derive novel closed form solutions that can serve as benchmarks that numerical solutions can be compared to. These are published for the first time in the literature. This is a unique book that gives the first exposition of the effects of various grading mechanisms on the structural behavior as well as taking into account vibrations and buckling.

From the Back Cover

Aim of this book is to provide an account of the structures that are made of functionally graded materials with purpose of customizing the materials with desired purpose. The latter may consist in attaining the pre-selected vibrational frequency or buckling load. The grading is conducted in either thickness, axial or radial directions. Some novel closed form solutions are obtained for the first time in literature.
