| Abstract |
Two related axisymmetric mixed problems of elasticity for a ring
crack, a<r<b, and a circular crack, 0<r<b, are exactly solved
in closed form.
The cracks are located on the interface between a layer of arbitrary
thickness H and a half-space. The outer surface of the layer and
the crack surfaces are subjected to arbitrary normal and tangential
loads. The mathematical statement of these problems is based on a
specific regularization of the solution of the first fundamental
boundary value problem of elasticity for a separate layer whose
boundary planes are subjected to arbitrary normal and tangential
loads. This solution is constructed by means of the Hankel
transform, providing that integrals for all stresses and
displacements converge. The mixed problems for the ring and
circular cracks are thus reduced to singular integral equations
(SIE) with the Cauchy kernel for complex functions of a real
variable. For these equations, we can completely use the results of
the Carleman-Vekua regularization method, which were obtained for
similar SIE in the problems of ring and circular punches indenting
a laminated half-space [1]. This regularization reduces the SIE to
the system of regular Fredholm integral equations of the third and
second kind for the ring and circular cracks, respectively. This
permits us also to determine and separate singularities of the
solution of the SIE at the ends of the integration interval and
singularities of the desired stresses at the crack boundaries. The
suggested approach to the statement of the mixed problems for
cracks or punches and a laminated half-space based on regularizing
the solution of the first fundamental boundary value problem was
previously used in [1-3] for the case of zero tangential stresses
at the layer interfaces. The main advantage of this approach is
that the complex problems for cracks are reduced to the equivalent
constitutive integral equations of a simple form.
The problem for a circular crack on a layer
interface in a laminated space was fist solved exactly in [4, 5].
The authors of these studies reduced the solution to the SIE with the
Cauchy kernel and then, by using the Carleman-Vekua regularization
method, transformed this SIE into the equivalent system of Fredholm
equations of the second kind, which allowed effective numerical
solution.
[The analytical solution of this problem was implemented numerically.
