Axisymmetric crack terminating at the interface of transversely isotropic dissimilar media

2002-07-01
In this paper, the axisymmetric elasticity problem of an infinitely long transversely isotropic solid cylinder imbedded in a transversely isotropic medium is considered. The cylinder contains an annular or a penny shaped crack subjected to uniform pressure on its surfaces. It is assumed that the cylinder is perfectly bonded to the medium. A singular integral equation of the first kind (whose unknown is the derivative of crack surface displacement) is derived by using Fourier and Hankel transforms. By performing an asymptotic analysis of the Fredholm kernel, the generalized Cauchy kernel associated with the case of `crack terminating at the interface' is derived. The stress singularity associated with this case is obtained. The singular integral equation is solved numerically for sample cases. Stress intensity factors are given for various crack geometries (internal annular and penny-shaped cracks, annular cracks and penny-shaped cracks terminating at the interface) for sample material pairs.

In this paper the general plane problem for a semi-infinite strip fixed at its short end, containing a crack perpendicular to its voundaries is considered. The strip is under the effect of a stamp. By extending the crack to the surfaces, one can reduce the problem to that of c cantilever beam or plate. Integral transform technique is used to provide an exact formulation of this problem, in terms of a system of four singular integral equations one of them being second kind.

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...
Thermal convection in the presence of a vertical magnetic field
Guray, E.; Tarman, H. I. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-11-01)
The interaction between thermal convection and an external uniform magnetic field in the vertical is numerically simulated within a computational domain of a horizontally periodic convective box between upper and lower rigid plates. The numerical technique is based on a spectral element method developed earlier to simulate natural thermal convection. In this work, it is extended to a magnetoconvection problem. Its main features are the use of rescaled Legendre-Lagrangian polynomial interpolants in expanding...
On the elastic-plastic shrink fit with supercritical interference
Gamer, U; Müftü, Sinan (Wiley, 1990)
Shrink fits with perfectly elastic-plastic hub material cannot be treated with the help of Tresca's yield criterion, if the ratio of outer and inner diameter as well as the interference exceed certain limits. For linear hardening material, however, a solution exists for all radii ratios. It is shown that, for small hardening, the material in the neighbourhood of the interface undergoes a twofold change of the yield condition.
Propagation of waves from a spherical cavity with and without a shell embedment
Akkas, N; Zakout, U; Tupholme, GE (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2000-01-01)
A spherical cavity in an infinite, elastic medium with and without a shell embedment is subjected to axisymmetric, non-torsional surface loads in the radial and meridional directions. The so-called Residual Variable Method (RVM) is used to obtain exact, closed-form solutions of the wave propagation problems. Some representative numerical results are presented graphically for the stresses created in two realistic loading situations.
