What Does FGM Stand For?

FGM stands for Functionally Gradient Materials

Functionally Gradient Materials (FGM) are advanced composite materials characterized by a gradual transition in composition and properties across their volume. This variation enables the control of mechanical, thermal, and other material properties to optimize performance for specific applications, such as aerospace, automotive, and biomedical engineering. FGMs are designed to enhance durability, reduce weight, and improve resistance to environmental factors, making them suitable for demanding environments and innovative engineering solutions.
