The Fourier-Bessel integral approach was first applied to thick-plate problems of elasticity by Lamb and later by Dougall. Still later, the method, now known as the Hankel transform method, was applied to several cases of the thick-plate problem by Sneddon who, apparently, was the first to obtain numerical results for the stresses in thick plates by this method. Sneddon devised an approximate method for evaluating the integrals; i.e., inverting the transforms, which he encountered. The main contribution of the present paper consists in the more precise numerical evaluation of the integrals involved for a special case previously considered by Sneddon, but for values of parameters outside the range studied by Sneddon. In particular, it is hoped that the formulation of integration procedures presented will be found useful in other thick-plate problems.

The problem of the thick elastic plate with a symmetric circular pressure loading is considered. The normal stress distribution on the midplane and for two positions off the midplane is obtained by a numerical integration of the solutions. A comparison of the stress distribution on the midplane is made with previous results.

Abstract In single crystals the NQR nutation frequency depends on the relative orientation of the coil and the quadrupole axes. In powders the nutation lineshape is a superposition of spectra from the randomly oriented single crystals, so that powder patterns appear in such experiments if the recon­struction is performed by the Fourier transform method. In this paper an alternative reconstruction method of nutation spectra is suggested making use of the Hankel Transform. In this way the nutation spectra are simplified. Singularities arising with experiments for the determination of the asymmetry parameter η can easily be resolved. In the particular case of an axially symmetric quadrupolar tensor and a homogeneous radiofrequency field one can reduce the powder pattern to a single line without heterogeneous broadening with respect to orientation. Further improvement o f the nutation spectra can be achieved by taking advantage of the maximum entropy method, which strongly reduces apodisation and noise problems. Applications of the new data manipulation techniques to N Q R imaging methods published elsewhere and 2D zero-field N Q R spectroscopy are reported.

We consider two-dimensional and axially symmetric critical-state problems in type-II superconductivity, and show that these problems are equivalent to evolutionary quasi-variational inequalities. In a special case, where the inequalities become variational, the existence and uniqueness of the solution are proved.

An iterative method for the solution of the problem of adjusting incomplete direction observations has been known and practised for many years, apparently without theoretical justification. The method is shown to be theoretically sound and convergent in all cases. In fact, the approximate method may be classed as a general case, which includes the special case of the adjustment of complete direction observations.

A new stable algorithm, based on hat functions for numerical evaluation of Hankel transform of order ν>-1, is proposed in this paper. The hat basis functions are used as a basis to expand a part of the integrand, rf(r), appearing in the Hankel transform integral. This leads to a very simple, efficient, and stable algorithm for the numerical evaluation of Hankel transform. The novelty of our paper is that we give error and stability analysis of the algorithm and corroborate our theoretical findings by various numerical experiments. Finally, an application of the proposed algorithm is given for solving the heat equation in an infinite cylinder with a radiation condition.

For one-dimensional quasi-crystals, the refined theory of thick plates is explicitly established from the general solution of quasi-crystals and the Luré method without employing ad hoc stress or deformation assumptions. For a homogeneous plate, the exact equations and solutions are derived, which consist of three parts: the biharmonic part, the shear part, and the transcendental part. For a nonhomogeneous plate, the exact governing differential equations and solutions under pure normal loadings and pure shear loadings, respectively, are obtained directly from the refined plate theory. In an illustrative example, explicit expressions of analytical solutions are obtained for torsion of a rectangular quasi-crystal plate.
