SiC/C functionally gradient materials (FGM) were deposited on the graphite substrate by the chemical vapor deposition method. The best deposition conditions of SiC/C FGM were $1300^{\circ}C, H_2/[SiCl_4+CH_4]=10, CH_4/[$SiCl_4+CH_4]=0.5-0.6$. Despite of discontinuous input gas ratio change, the FGM of which composition was continuously changed could be obtained and continuous structural change without definite interfaces was confirmed by the SEM observation.

A Green's function approach is adopted for analyzing the thermoelastic deformation and stress analysis of a plate made of functionally graded materials (FGMs). The solution to the 3-dimensional steady temperature is obtained by using the laminate theory. The fundamental equations for thermoelastic problems are derived in terms of out-plane deformation and in-plane force, separately. The thermoelastic deformation and the stress distributions due to the bending and in-plane forces are analyzed by using a Green’Às function based on the Galerkin method. The eigenfunctions of the Galerkin Green's function for the thermoelastic deformation and the stress distributions are approximated in terms of a series of admissible functions that satisfy the homogeneous boundary conditions of the rectangular plate. Numerical examples are carried out and effects of material properties on thermoelastic behaviors are discussed.

In this paper, a scheme to evaluate the response variability for functionally graded material (FGM) beam with varying sectional area is presented. The randomness is assumed to appear in a spatial domain along the beam axis in the elastic modulus. The functionally graded material categorized as composite materials, however without the drawbacks of delamination and occurrence of cracks due to abrupt change in material properties between layers in the conventional composite materials. The functionally graded material is produced by the gradual solidification through thickness direction, which endows continuous variation of material properties, which makes this material performs in a smooth way. However, due to difficulties in tailoring the gradients, to have uncertainty in material properties is unavoidable. The elastic modulus at the center section is assumed to be random in the spatial domain along the beam axis. Introducing random variables, defined in terms of stochastic integration, the first and second moments of responses are evaluated. The proposed scheme is verified by using the Monte Carlo simulation based on the random samples generated employing the spectral representation scheme. The response variability as a function of correlation distance, the effects of material and geometrical parameters on the response variability are investigated in detail. The efficiency of the proposed scheme is also addressed by comparing the analysis time of the proposed scheme and MCS.

Monolithic SiC and SiC/C functionally gradient material (FGM) layers were deposited on graphite substrates by CVD method. Temperature a profiles and thermal stress distributions in the deposited layers under the thermal shock were calculated by a commercially available software package. The designed FGM specimens were found to show an efficient relaxation of thermal stresses at the interfaces, and the specimens were intact even under a thermal shock of $\Delta$T=1600 K.

Functionally Gradient Materials(FGM) of 4.5Pb($Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$-55PZT and PLZT(lO/70 /30, 11/60/40) were prepared. Its dielectric and piezoelectric strain properties were investigated. The FGM were pressed into A/B/ A configuration using two kinds of films, one layer(A) was eliminated from FGM by polishing after sintering at $l250^{\circ}C$, 2 hrs. The acrylic binder system was successfully applied for crack free film through doctor blade method. The thickness of gradent layer in FGM was about 30${\mu}$m. Dielectric properties of FGM show the average value of each side layer. The strain-electric field characteristics of FGM were significantly improved comparison with the other single compositions. The prepared FGM piezoelectric actuator shows about 3${\mu}$m/IOOV displacement.

Transient response of a crack in a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) interface layer between two dissimilar homogeneous piezoelectric layers under anti-plane shear is analyzed using integral transform approaches. The properties of the FGPM layer vary continuously along the thickness. Laplace and Fourier transforms are used to reduce the problem to two sets of dual integral equations, which are then expressed to the Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Numerical values on the dynamic energy release rate (DERR) are presented for the FGPM to show the effects on electric loading, gradient of the material properties, and thickness of the layers. Computed results yield following conclusions: (a) the DERR increases with the increase of the gradient of the material properties of the FGPM layer; (b) certain direction and magnitude of the electric impact loading impedes crack extension; (c) increase of the thickness of the FGPM layer and the homogeneous piezoelectric layer which has larger material properties than those of the crack plane are beneficial to increase of the resistance of transient fracture of the FGPM layer.
