Functionally graded materials (FGMs), which enable continuous changes in material properties by varying the ratio of two or more materials, provide both thermal protection and load-bearing capabilities. Therefore, they have great advantages in thermal protection structures for hypersonic vehicles. There have been numerous studies of basic elements made of FGMs, such as functionally graded (FG) plates, beams and shells. However, few studies focus on the FG structures applied in the hypersonic vehicles such as the wing. In addition, FGMs are sensitive to the temperature, which are changeable in the flight. Therefore, the characteristics of FG structures are important to investigate. This paper will establish an integrated static/dynamic aerothermoelastic analysis framework for FG structures in hypersonic vehicles. First, the static aerothermoelastic responses are analysed during the flight based on the aerodynamic analysis method of the piston theory, and structure analysis method of the finite element method. Second, at a given moment, the temperature field, deformations and aerodynamic forces acquired in the static analysis are inputted for the panel flutter analysis for plates in the FG structures, based on a semianalytical method. Meanwhile, the flutter characteristics of the wing are analysed based on the heated structures obtained in the static analysis. Finally, the static responses, panel flutter and flutter characteristics of the wing during the whole flight will be obtained through this framework, which will analyse the global and local responses and stability characteristics simultaneously. The framework will provide the characteristics of FG structures in hypersonic vehicles over time, identify the critical design point, and provide a foundation for the following design. |
