Abstarct: Thermo-mechanical analysis of functionally graded hollow sphere subjected to rotational, mechanical loads and one-dimensional steady-state thermal stresses is carried out in this study. The material properties are assumed to vary nonlinearly in the radial direction and the Poisson’s ratio is assumed constant. The temperature distribution is assumed to be a function of radius, with general thermal and mechanical boundary conditions on the inside and outside surfaces of the sphere. In the analysis presented here the effect of non-homogeneity in FGM thick sphere was implemented by choosing a dimensionless parameter, named , which could be assigned an arbitrary value affecting the stresses in the sphere. It is observed that the results for are different from those obtained for other values of . Cases of pressure, temperature and combined loadings were considered separately. Using FEM simulations, the analytical findings for FGM spheres under the influence of internal pressure and temperature gradient were compared to finite element results. Eventually, the finite element analysis was carried on the hollow rotational sphere which were considered general boundary conditions involving mechanical and tehemomechanical bounary conditions. It is concluded that by changing the value of , the properties of FGM can be so modified that the lowest stress levels are reached. The present results agree well with existing results. Besides, the sopureposition laws are valided in the hollow FGM shperes.
