Mechanical and thermal material characteristics of functionally graded materials
Abstract eng: This paper deals with the fabrication of composites such as Functionally Graded Materials (FGM), hybrid composite, Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates using hand layup technique and experimental study of their tensile characteristics. It is observed that the CFRP laminates give the highest tensile strength and modulus, while the highest total energy absorbed before failure is predicted for FGM specimens. The flexural strength and modulus are highest for the FGM. Tensile properties of composites are also determined for different strain rate and temperature. It is predicted that with increase in strain rate of deformation, tensile strength and stiffness does not change, however, stiffness and strength decrease with increase in temperature.
