This report describes a finite element analysis of a Functionally Graded Material (FGM) subjected to mechanical loading for the estimation of the effective thermo-physical properties based on two commercial programs; a FE program (ANSYS) and spreadsheet software (EXCEL). A FGM is a composite, consi...
