摘要:The second order statistics of multiple edge crack functionally graded materials (FGMs) under tensile, shear and combined loading assuming uncertain system parameters is presented in this paper. The uncertain parameters used under the present study are the material properties, and crack parameters such as crack length and crack angle. In this present analysis extended finite element method (XFEM) is used. The stochastic analysis is carried out using second order perturbation technique (SOPT) for the evaluation of mean and coefficient of variance (COV) of mixed mode stress intensity factor (MMSIF).
