Thermo-elastic optimization of material distribution of functionally graded structures by an isogeometrical approach (2014, methodology): “At the first model problem, we verify the presented results by optimization of a three layered Ni–Al2O3 FGM square plate for which the optimal results of other numerical methods such as finite elements (Cho and Ha, 2002b) and meshless method (Goupee and Vel, 2006b) are available in the literature.”
Dynamic analysis of two-dimensional functionally graded thick hollow cylinder with finite length under impact loading (2009, background): “The manufacturing of multidimensional FGM may seem to be costly or difficult, but it should be noted that while these technologies are relatively new, processes such as 3D printing (3DPTM) and Laser Engineering Net Shaping (LENS(R)) can currently produce FGMs with relatively arbitrary tree-dimension”
Elastic-plastic analysis of two-dimensional functionally graded materials under thermal loading (2009, background): “From the investigations of Cho and Ha (2002) and Goupee and Vel (2006) it can be noticed that their investigations aimed at optimizing the volume fractions distributions of conventional FGMs.”
