Title Asymptotic Expansions and the Possibilities to Drop the Hypotheses in the Prandtl Problem
Author(s) D. V. Georgievskii (Lomonosov Moscow State University, GSP-2, Leninskie Gory, Moscow, 119992, Russia, georgiev@mech.math.msu.su)
Abstract The plane problem on the quasistatic compression of a thin perfectly plastic layer between undeformable rough plates (the Prandtl problem) has a well-known analytic solution at all points sufficiently far from the midsection and endpoints of the layer. Both the static and the kinematic component of this solution were obtained on the basis of the Prandtl hypothesis [1] stating that the tangential stress is linear along the layer thickness and is maximal in absolute value on the plate surfaces. (If the plates are perfectly rough, then this maximum value coincides with the shear yield stress.) The Prandtl hypothesis was widely confirmed in experiments carried out after the paper [1] had been published.

At the same time, it is natural to ask whether one can construct a classical solution of this problem without imposing any static or kinematic hypotheses on the unknown variables and whether there exist any other mathematical solutions in which these hypotheses do not hold and which themselves are not observed in experiments. In the present paper, we use asymptotic analysis with a natural small geometric parameter and uniquely determine an exact solution (in the sense of finiteness of the number of terms in the asymptotic expansion), which coincides with the Prandtl solution generalized to the case of an arbitrary roughness coefficient of the plates. We rigorously show that such asymptotics cannot hold near the layer midsection, where we construct another, internal asymptotic expansion. In the abovementioned sense, the solution corresponding to the internal expansion is also exact and models the compression of a thin vertical strip in the middle of the layer. We realize two possible versions of matching of the two expansions in the cross-section whose distance from the midsection is equal to the layer thickness.
