We investigate a partially debonded circular elastic inclusion embedded in a particular class of harmonic materials by using the complex variable method under finite plane-strain deformations. A complete (or full-field) solution is derived. It is observed that the stresses in general exhibit oscillatory singularities near the two tips of the arc shaped interface crack. Particularly the traditional inverse square root singularity for stresses is observed when the asymptotic behavior of the harmonic materials obeys a constitutive restriction proposed by Knowles and Sternberg (1975, “On the Singularity Induced by Certain Mixed Boundary Conditions in Linearized and Nonlinear Elastostatics,” Int. J. Solids Struct., 11, pp. 1173–1201). It is also found that the number of admissible states under finite plane deformations for given external loads can be two, one, or even zero.

Abstract The existence of distributional solutions is investigated for the time-dependent bending of a plate with transverse shear deformation under mixed boundary conditions. The problem is then reduced to nonstationary boundary integral equations and the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the latter are studied in appropriate Sobolev spaces.

Abstract We find the most general solution to Chern-Simons AdS3 gravity in Fefferman-Graham gauge. The connections are equivalent to geometries that have a non-trivial curved boundary, characterized by a 2-dimensional vielbein and a spin connection. We define a variational principle for Dirichlet boundary conditions and find the boundary stress tensor in the Chern-Simons formalism. Using this variational principle as the departure point, we show how to treat other choices of boundary conditions in this formalism, such as, including the mixed boundary conditions corresponding to a $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ -deformation.

A theory of boundary eigensolutions is presented for boundary value problems in engineering mechanics. While the theory is quite general, the presentation here is restricted to potential problems. Contrary to the traditional approach, the eigenproblem is formed by inserting the eigenparameter, along with a positive weight function, into the boundary condition. The resulting spectra are real and the eigenfunctions are mutually orthogonal on the boundary, thus providing a basis for solutions. The weight function permits effective treatment of nonsmooth problems associated with cracks, notches and mixed boundary conditions. Several ideas related to the convergence characteristics are also introduced. Furthermore, the connection is made to integral equation methods and variational methods. This paves the way toward the development of new computational formulations for finite element and boundary element methods. Two numerical examples are included to illustrate the applicability.
