Abstract
The recently developed parametric finite-volume theory for functionally graded materials is employed to investigate the response of a layered cylinder under transient thermal loading that simulates a cyclic thermal shock durability test. The results reveal a potential for the occurance of two distinct failure modes that may be activated due to two different stress components reaching critical values during different portions of the thermal cycle at different locations. These are delamination of the ceramic top coat from the bond coat, and radial cracking of the top coat that potentially initiates at the outer surface subjected to concentrated transient thermal load. Steady-state analysis substantially underestimates the magnitude of the radial and hoop stresses and, moreover, does not predict the stress reversals during cooldown that likely initiate radial cracks at the outer surface. The fidelity with which local stress fields are captured provides a convincing evidence that the parametric finite-volume theory is an attractive alternative to the finite-element analysis for this class of problems.
