Plane elasticity problem for a multi-wedge system with a thin wedge

Abstract

a b s t r a c tThe paper presents a method for studying a system of elastic wedges containing a thin wedge with the angle H 0 , which may be arbitrary small. An analysis shows that the considered problem, involving 2-D vectors of tractions and displacements, cannot be solved by straight-forward extension of the method previously worked out by the authors for analogous scalar problems. The difficulty arises because of the disclosed feature of the dependences between the Mellin transformed displacements and tractions at the boundaries of a thin wedge: they are linearly dependent when their Taylor's expansions in H 0 are represented by the first terms only. The difficulty is removed by using the consequences of the linear dependence and by an appropriate re-arrangement of variables. Then simple physical models, simulating the influence of a thin wedge on a multi-wedge system, become available. The models cover the cases of a very rigid and very compliant thin wedge and also intermediate cases. The ranges of the models applicability are studied analytically and illustrated by numerical results.

Industry 4.0. Part II.Conditions in the area of production technology and architecture of IT system in processing of polymer materials

“…Opracowany system informatyczny jest następnie wdrażany i optymalizowany, a w wypadku konieczności wprowadzenia zmian -modernizowany. Należy zaznaczyć, że obydwa obszary (Industry i IT) są traktowane jako oddzielne systemy, funkcjonujące w architekturze zbliżonej do modelu klient-serwer [12][13][14][15]. Ich rozbudowa oraz modernizacja odbywa się często niezależnie, bez szczegółowej analizy zachodzących między nimi korelacji.…”

Perturbation analysis for an imperfect interface crack problem using weight function techniques

“…Indeed, even homogenisation-type problems for composite materials with the main crack lying along a soft imperfect interface of the composite could be tackled using the described techniques. Moreover, similar analysis could be conducted for more general problems, for instance Mode I/Mode II analysis and for various different types of imperfect interface (see for example Mishuris (1997); Mishuris et al (2001); Linkov (2010)).…”

Determination of high‐order fields for multianisotropic material antiplane V‐notches and inclusions by the asymptotic expansion technique and an overdeterministic method

“…As two important parameters characterizing the singular stress fields, the singularity exponent and the stress angular function of multimaterial isotropic and anisotropic corners were computed under different conditions . Using the Mellin transform, Linkov and Rybarska‐Rusinek studied the influence of a thin wedge on a multiwedge system made of isotropic materials. Song et al presented a definition and evaluation procedure for the generalized stress intensity factors at multimaterial wedges composed of any number of isotropic and anisotropic materials.…”
