This paper is concerned with two-dimensional (r, θ) thermoelastic dynamic responses of a long functionally graded hollow cylinder subjected to asysmmetrical thermal and mechanical loads. The material properties, except the Poisson's ratio, are assumed to be temperature independent and vary exponentially and continuously in the radial direction. By means of finite difference method and Newmark method, the motion governing equations of the long FGM hollow cylinder are solved. Comparisons between this paper's results and the corresponding analytical results validate the proposed solution. In addition, the effects of the volume fraction, temperature boundary conditions on the hollow cylinder's deformations and stresses distributions are examined, and many other valuable thermoelastic dynamic characteristics are revealed.
