Abstract:This paper presents a new displacement solution based on a Modified Fourier Series (MFS) for isotropic linear elastic solids under plane strain or plane stress states subject to continuous displacement and traction boundary conditions in a two-dimensional rectangular domain. In contrast with existing approaches that are restricted to Fourier series with a rate of convergence of second order O(m-2), the MFS allows increasing the rate of convergence of the solution. The governing Partial Differential Equations (… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
