    Abstract
    Rings are widely used in mechanical equipment, and their fitness may undergo some damage under severe vibration. In these structures, functionally graded rings can be used to optimize the resistance, energy consumption, and fitness. Due to their complexity, the finite-element analysis may be implemented using special elements. Enhancement of accuracy and minimization of time consumption play an important role in the analysis of these rings. In this study, a new cylindrical superelement for the FGM rings is designed and implemented to facilitate the vibration analysis of the rings. The power-law distribution is used for the modeling of the FGM rings in the thickness direction. Natural...
