We study the problem of propagating longitudinal waves in an elastic rod connected to a locally damaged foundation through a thin elastic layer. The motion of the rigid foundation blocks is considered predetermined. We formulated the initial-boundary problem for the Klein-Gordon equation with a discontinuous right-hand side. The nonstationary fields of displacements, velocities, and deformations were investigated by the Laplace integral transformation method. Examples of sudden divergence of fragments of the foundation by a given value and their mutual separation at a constant speed are considered.

In the present study, we derive a new B-spline technique namely trigonometric B-spline collocation algorithm to solve some initial boundary value problems for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. In order to carry out the time integration with Crank-Nicolson implicit method, the order of the equation is reduced to give a coupled system of nonlinear partial differential equations. The collocation approximation based on trigonometric cubic B-splines for spatial discretization is followed by the linearization of the nonlinear term. The efficiency and accuracy of the present method are validated by measuring the error between the numerical and analytical solutions when exist. The conservation laws representing momentum and energy are also computed for all problems.

The new problem about the stress concentration around a spherical crack inside of an elastic cone is solved for the point tensile force enclosed to a cone's edge. The constructed discontinuous solutions of the equilibrium equations have allowed to express the displacements and stress in a cone through their jumps and the jumps of their normal derivatives across the crack's surface. The application of the integral transformation method under the generalized scheme has reduced the problem solving to the solving of the integrodifferential equation system with regard to the displacements' jumps. This system was solved approximately by the orthogonal polynomial method. The use of this method has allowed to take into consideration the order of the solution's singularities at the ends of an integral interval. The correlation between the crack's geometrical parameters, its distance from an edge, and the SIF values is established after the numerical analysis. The limit of the proposed method applicability is specified.
