Creep in Rotating Composite Disk having Variable Thickness Subjected to Thermal as well as Particle Gradient

TL;DR

This paper investigates how thermal and particle gradients affect creep behavior in rotating composite disks with variable thickness, showing that increased thickness and particle gradient reduce stresses and strain rates.

Contribution

It introduces a mathematical model analyzing the combined effects of thermal, particle gradients, and variable thickness on creep in rotating composite disks.

Findings

Stresses and strain rates decrease with increased thickness and particle gradient.

Creep deformation reduces as the thickness fluctuates.

Thermal and particle gradients significantly influence creep behavior.

Abstract

The motivation behind this paper is to present the effect of thermal and particle gradient in rotating composite disk with variable thickness using Sherby law. The values of tangential, radial stresses and strain rates are calculated at different radius using mathematical modeling. It has been observed that with increase in the variable thickness and particle gradient the stresses and strain rates decrease and determined that the creep deformation decreases with fluctuating thickness.
