Abstract In this article, the propagation of elastic wave is studied in two dimensional functionally graded thick hollow cylinder with finite length subjected to mechanical shock loading, considering two dimensional variations for mechanical properties. The meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is developed to solve the boundary value problem. The Newmark finite difference method is used to treat the time dependence of the variables for transient problems. The FG cylinder is considered to be under axisymmetric conditions. The mechanical properties of FG cylinder are assumed to vary across thickness and length of FG cylinder in terms of… More >
