This paper presents a closed-form analytical solution for the dynamic response of two independent SDOF oscillators standing on one flexible foundation embedded in an elastic half-space and excited by plane SH waves. The solution is obtained by the wave function expansion method and is verified by comparison with the results of the special cases of a rigid foundation and the published research result of a flexible foundation. The model is utilized to investigate how the foundation stiffness influences the system response. The results show that there will be a significant interaction between the two independent structures on one flexible foundation and the intensity of the interaction is mainly dependent on foundation stiffness and structural stiffness. For a system with more flexible foundation, strong interaction will exist between the two structures; larger structural stiffness will also lead to a strong interaction between the two structures. When the structural mass and the structural stiffness are all larger, the flexible foundation cannot be treated as a rigid foundation even if the foundation stiffness is many times larger than that of soil. This model may be useful to get insight into the effects of foundation flexibility on the interaction of two independent structures standing on one flexible foundation.

In this work a three-dimensional planar crack on the surface of elastic half-space was analyzed under rolling contact load. The stresses interior to an elastic half-space body under rolling contact load and those produced by an infinitesimal displacement jump loop for the elastic half-space body were used to reduce the planar crack problem to the solution of a system of two-dimensional hypersingular integral equations with unknown displacement jump. The ideas of finite element discretization were employed to construct numerical solution schemes for solving the integral equations. An appropriate treatment of the associated hypersingular integral in the numerical solution to the integral equations was proposed in Hadamard's finite-part integral sense. The numerical results showed that the present procedure yields solutions with high accuracies. The stress intensity factors near the crack front edge under rolling contact load were indicated in graphical form with varying the crack shape, the radius of rolling contact zone and the friction coefficients, respectively. In addition, the influence of the lubricant infiltrating the crack surfaces on the crack propagation was also discussed in the paper.
