An exact solution for improved metal-composite joints reinforced by FG inter-layers

A two-dimensional analytic solution based on linear elasticity theory is used to investigate the effect of using a functionally graded material (FGM) as an inter-layer in reducing the stress concentration in non-axisymmetric loaded metal-composite joints. The geometry of the joint consists of a meta...
