This article presents an analytical method capable of resolving the coupled problem of surface cracking in an orthotropic elastic medium subjected to frictional contact by a rigid flat punch. Reciprocal influences between the surface crack and the flat punch are accounted for by establishing a fully coupled formulation. Governing partial differential equations involving the displacement components are derived in accordance with plane theory of orthotropic elasticity. General solutions corresponding to mode I and II crack problems and contact problem are obtained employing Fourier transformation techniques. These separate solutions are then reconciled; and three coupled singular integral equations are developed by applying crack surface and contact zone conditions. Singular integral equations are solved numerically through an expansion-collocation method in which the primary unknowns are expanded into series in terms of Jacobi polynomials. Comparisons to the results available in the literature for certain special cases do verify the proposed procedures. Further numerical results are presented to be able to demonstrate the influences of material orthotropy, coefficient of friction, and geometric parameters upon the mixed-mode stress intensity factors and the contact stress.

Cracked infinite cylinder with two rigid inclusions under axisymmetric tension Toygar, M. Evren; Gecit, M. Rusen (2006-08-01) This paper considers the problem of an axisymmetric infinite cylinder with a ring shaped crack at z = 0 and two ring-shaped rigid inclusions with negligible thickness at z = +/- L. The cylinder is under the action of uniformly distributed axial tension applied at infinity and its lateral surface is free of traction. It is assumed that the material of the cylinder is linearly elastic and isotropic. Crack surfaces are free and the constant displacements are continuous along the rigid inclusions while the stre...
Dynamic frictional contact problems involving elastic coatings BALCI, MEHMET NURULLAH; Dağ, Serkan (Elsevier BV, 2018-08-01) This paper presents a general theory of dynamic frictional contact of elastic coatings pressed against by a rigid punch moving with a constant speed. Governing equations of elastodynamics are solved by applying Galilean and Fourier transformations. The contact problem is then reduced to a singular integral equation, which is solved numerically. Developed procedures are verified through comparisons made to the available computational and analytical results. Parametric analyses illustrate the influences of pu...
Oblique surface cracking and crack closure in an orthotropic medium under contact loading Toktaş, Selim Ercihan; Dağ, Serkan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2018) In this study, inclined surface cracks in an elastic orthotropic half-plane exposed to contact loading at the material surface are examined for both open and closed crack assumptions. At first, mixed mode stress intensity factors are computed for fully open crack assumption depending on the solution of singular integral equations, obtained by Full Fourier Transform techniques. Unless fully open crack assumption is valid, the suitable crack closure mode is determined. Both crack tip and full length closure m...
Edge cracks in a transversely isotropic hollow cylinder Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat (Elsevier BV, 2005-09-01) The analytical solution for the linear elastic, axisymmetric problem of inner and outer edge cracks in a transversely isotropic infinitely long hollow cylinder is considered. The z = 0 plane on which the crack lies is a plane of symmetry. The loading is uniform crack surface pressure. The mixed boundary value problem is reduced to a singular integral equation where the unknown is the derivative of the crack surface displacement. An asymptotic analysis is done to derive the generalized Cauchy kernel associat...
Frictional Hertzian contact between a laterally graded elastic medium and a rigid circular stamp Dağ, Serkan; YILDIRIM, BORA; Ozatag, A. Cihan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-08-01) This study investigates the problem of sliding frictional contact between a laterally graded elastic medium and a rigid circular stamp. Analytical and computational methods are developed to evaluate the contact stresses. In the analytical formulation, spatial variation in the shear modulus of the graded medium is represented by an exponential function, and Poisson's ratio is taken as a constant. Coulomb's dry friction law is assumed to hold within the contact area. The two-dimensional plane elasticity probl...
