In this study, analytical solutions are presented for the polar orthotropic functionally graded annular disks having variable profile and rotating with constant angular velocity. The formulations were performed by referring to polar coordinate system. Small deformations, state of plane stress and rotational symmetry were presumed in the formulations. Elasticity moduli, disk thickness and density vary radially according to power law, while Poisson�s ratios were constant valued. Rotating disks having two different types of boundary conditions were studied. These were (i) annular disks having traction free inner and outer surfaces and (ii) annular disks mounted on a circular rigid shaft having traction free outer surface. Two sample problems were presented that accounts the solutions developed for the two different boundary conditions considered in the study. The stress and displacement profiles were determined at the elastic limit angular velocities which were evaluated according to Hill�s quadratic yield criteria. The effects of the degree of orthotropy were also examined.
