Computing the thermoelastic stress field of a material subjected to frictional heating is essential for component failure prevention and life prediction. However, the analysis for three-dimensional thermoelastic stress field for tribological problems is not well developed. Furthermore, the pressure distribution due to rough surface contact is irregular; hence the frictional heating can hardly be described by an analytical expression. This paper presents a novel set of frequency-domain expressions (frequency response functions) of the thermoelastic stress field of a uniformly moving three-dimensional elastic half-space subjected to arbitrary transient frictional heating, where the velocity of the half-space, its magnitude and direction, can be an arbitrary function of time. General formulas are expressed in the form of time integrals, and important expressions for constant velocities are given for the transient-instantaneous, transient-continuous, and steady-state cases. The thermoelastic stress field inside a translating half-space with constant velocities are illustrated and discussed by using the discrete convolution and fast Fourier transform method when a parabolic type or an irregularly distributed heat source is applied.

Closed-form expressions are obtained for the normal surface displacements due to a normal point force moving at constant speed over the surface of an elastic half-space. The Smirnov-Sobolev technique is used to reduce the problem to a linear superposition of two-dimensional stress and displacement fields.

Abstract Two-dimensional Fourier transforms are employed to treat the two-dimensional dynamic problem of elastic half space having a slightly wavy boundary. The various boundary curves considered include square and triangular bumps and holes, and sinusoidal and periodic boundaries. The number of different types of surface loadings considered are: (a) Normal tractions and zero shear, (b) impulsive normal tractions and zero shear, (c) suddenly applied normal tractions and zero shear, (d) concentrated normal load and zero shear, (e) concentrated impulsive load and zero shear, (f) pulsating normal load and zero shear, (g) moving loads, (h) pulsating moving loads, (i) vertical and horizontal loads, (j) moving vertical loads. Stress and displacement components for special cases of the loads described in (a, c, f, and g) acting on a sinusoidal boundary lead to a solution which requires evaluation of a single indefinite integral. Closed-form results are given for a uniform pulsating pressure load.


This paper is concerned with the study of transient response of a transversely isotropic elastic half-space under internal loadings and displacement discontinuities. Governing equations corresponding to two-dimensional and three-dimensional transient wave propagation problems are solved by using Laplace–Fourier integral transforms and Laplace−Hankel integral transforms, respectively. Explicit general solutions for displacements and stresses are presented. Thereafter boundary-value problems corresponding to internal transient loadings and transient displacement discontinuities are solved for both two-dimensional and three-dimensional problems. Explicit analytical solutions for displacements and stresses corresponding to internal loadings and displacement discontinuities are presented. Solutions corresponding to arbitrary loadings and displacement discontinuities can be obtained through the application of standard analytical procedures such as integration and Fourier expansion to the fundamental solutions presented in this article. It is shown that the transient response of a medium can be accurately computed by using a combination of numerical quadrature and a numerical Laplace inversion technique for the evaluation of integrals appearing in the analytical solutions. Comparisons with existing transient solutions for isotropic materials are presented to confirm the accuracy of the present solutions. Selected numerical results for displacements and stresses due to a buried circular patch load are presented to portray some features of the response of a transversely isotropic elastic half-space. The fundamental solutions presented in this paper can be used in the analysis of a variety of transient problems encountered in disciplines such as seismology, earthquake engineering, etc. In addition these fundamental solutions appear as the kernel functions in the boundary integral equation method and in the displacement discontinuity method.

Measurements made on Rayleigh waves below the surface of a simulated elastic half‐space confirm in detail the behavior predicted by theory. These measurements, made by means of a two‐dimensional seismic model, show that the amplitude of the Rayleigh wave falls off rapidly with increasing depth.
