Abstract

An analytical solution of a plane stress problem for a cantilever beam made of a functionally graded material subjected to uniform loading is constructed. The material is assumed to be isotropic with constant Poisson’s ratio and exponentially varying Young’s modulus through the beam thickness. Expressions for displacements, strains, and stresses are obtained.
