Optimal design of functionally graded material columns for buckling problems
This paper presents a method for improving the buckling capacity of slender columns by employing functionally graded materials (FGMs) instead of isotropic materials in constructing these members. The volume fractions of FGM constituents are varied along the column length by a trigonometric function...
