Keywords: thermal stress, ceramic, metal grains, fgm

In this study a finite element micromechanical model is developed to study the effect of lateral placement of grains on thermal stress distribution in FGMs. Despite of fact that macromechanical approach leads into an average thermal stress through the layer width, here the thermal stress is presented in micro size.
