In this thesis, the thermal responses, stresses and deformations, frequencies due are investigated analytically for functionally graded material plates and compared with that of Structural Steel and Aluminum. Mathematical correlations are done to determine the material properties of functionally graded material with metal Aluminum using Ceramic as interface zone for each layer up to 10 layers. FGM’s are considered for volume fractions of K=2 and K=4. Thermal, Static, Modal and Random vibration analyses are performed on the plates for Structural Steel and Aluminum using Solid Element and for FGM material k = 2, and k = 4 using Shell Element. Analysis is done in Ansys.
