ABSTRACTComplex method and Green's function method are used here to investigate the dynamic analysis for circular inclusion near interfacial crack impacted by SH-wave in bi-material half-space. Firstly, the displacement expression of the scattering wave was constructed which satisfied the free boundary conditions, then Green's function could be constructed, which was an essential solution to the displacement field for an elastic right-angle space with a circular inclusion impacted by out-plane harmonic line source loading at vertical surface. Secondly, crack was made out with “crack-division” technique. Meanwhile, the bi-material media was divided into two parts along the bi-material interface based on the idea of interface “conjunction”, and then the vertical surfaces of the two right-angle spaces were loaded with undetermined anti-plane forces in order to satisfy displacement continuity and stress continuity conditions at linking section. So a series of algebraic equations for determining the unknown forces could be set up through continuity conditions and the Green's function. Finally, some examples and results for dynamic stress concentration factor of the circular elastic inclusion were given. Numerical results show that they are influenced by interfacial crack, the incident wave number and the free boundary in some degree.

Train Of Thought

In this paper, the method of Green’s function is used to investigate the problem of dynamic stress concentration of circular lining and interior linear crack impacted by incident SH-wave. The train of thought for this problem is that: Firstly, a Green’s function is constructed for the problem, which is a fundamental solution of displacement field for an elastic space possessing a circular lining while bearing out-of-plane harmonic line source force at any point in the lining. In terms of the solution of SH-wave’s scattering by an elastic space with a circular lining, anti-plane stresses which are the same in quantity but opposite in direction to those mentioned before, are loaded at the region where the crack existent actually, we called this process “crack-division”. Finally, the expressions of the displacement and stress are given when the lining and the crack exist at the same time. Then, by using the expressions, some example is provided to show the effect of crack on the dynamic stress concentration around circular lining.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mathematical model comprising a heterogeneous fluid-saturated fissured porous layer overlying a non-homogeneous anisotropic fluid-saturated porous half-space without fissures. The influence of point source on horizontally polarized shear-wave (SH-wave) propagation has been studied intensely. Design/methodology/approach Techniques of Green’s function and Fourier transform are applied to acquire displacement components, and with the help of boundary conditions, complex frequency equation has been constructed. Findings Complex frequency relation leads to two distinct equations featuring dispersion and attenuation properties of SH-wave in a heterogeneous fissured porous medium. Using MATHEMATICA software, dispersion and damping curves are sketched to disclose the effects of heterogeneity parameters associated with both media, parameters related to rigidity and density of single porous half-space, attenuation coefficient, wave velocity, total porosity, volume fraction of fissures and anisotropy. The fact of obtaining classical Love wave equation by introducing several particular conditions establishes the validation of the considered model. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, effect of point source on SH-wave propagating in porous layer containing macro as well as micro porosity is not analysed so far, although theory of fissured poroelasticity itself has vast applications in real life and impact of point source not only enhances the importance of fissured porous materials but also opens a new area for future research.

Multiple circular inclusions exists widely in natural media, engineering materials and modern municipal construction, and defects are usually found around the inclusions. When composite material with multiple circular inclusions and a crack is impacted by dynamic load, the scattering field will be produced. The problem of scattering of SH waves by multiple circular inclusions and a linear crack is one of the important and interesting questions in mechanical engineering and civil engineering for the latest decade. It is hard to obtain analytic solutions except for several simple conditions. In this paper, the method of Green’s function is used to investigate the problem of dynamic stress concentration of multiple circular inclusions and a linear crack for incident SH wave. The train of thoughts for this problem is that: Firstly, a Green’s function is constructed for the problem, which is a fundamental solution of displacement field for an elastic space possessing multiple circular inclusions while bearing out-of-plane harmonic line source force at any point: Secondly, in terms of the solution of SH-wave’s scattering by an elastic space with multiple circular inclusions, anti-plane stresses which are the same in quantity but opposite in direction to those mentioned before, are loaded at the region where the crack is in existent actually; Finally, the expressions of the displacement and stress are given when multiple circular inclusions and a linear crack exist at the same time. Then, by using the expression, an example is provided to show the effect of multiple circular inclusions and crack on the dynamic stress concentration.

Defect Green’s function (GF) of multiple point-like inhomogeneities in a multilayered solid has been derived within the theory of linear anisotropic elasticity. It is related to the (reference) GF of the multilayered matrix excluding the inhomogeneities through the continuum Dyson’s equation. While the reference GF is available, the defect GF can be solved. The expressions are first analytically reduced by realizing the point-likeness of the inhomogeneities. The subsequent procedure involves the solution of the response of each individual inhomogeneity to a far-field straining in the multilayered matrix and a matrix inversion on the order of the number of inhomogeneities. Furthermore, the defect GF is applied to derive the field induced by inhomogeneous substitutions in a multilayered solid. Numerical results are reported for arrays of cubic and semispherical Ge inclusions in a Si/Ge superlattice. The numerical results have demonstrated the validity and efficiency of the present formulation.
