Structures with spatially inhomogeneous material properties are of great practical importance in modern product and system design. Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) and Multifunctional Materials are formed by a continuous gradation of two or more constituents over the physical volume. The minisymposium will offer a framework for discussing new ideas in this emerging field with emphasis on, but not limited to the following:
• FGM beam, shell and solid finite elements accompanied with suitable homogenization procedures with variation of material properties in one, two and three directions.
• Novel concepts regarding non-uniform torsion of FGM beam and beam structures, warping and distorsions, classical and generalized beam theories
• Linear and nonlinear problems of elastostatics and elastodynamics and elastoplasticity
• The multiphysical regime (thermo-elasticity and the piezo-electric effect, electro-thermal-structural problems, the Thomson and Seebeck effect, electromagnetic-structural analysis, etc.)
• Measurement technology and verification strategies for numerical procedures
