Based on Green’s function, complex function and multi-polar coordinate system, the far field solution of SH wave scattered by an elastic half space with a circular cavity and a crack at an arbitrary position and orientation is investigated. First, a suitable Green’s function is constructed, which is the fundamental solution of the displacement field for a half space with a circular cavity subjected to an out-plane time-harmonic line force at an arbitrary position in half space. Second, by means of crack-division technique, a crack with any location and orientation can be constructed in the region of the half space. The displacement field and stress field are established in the situation of coexistence of circular cavity and crack. At last expressions of far field, such as displacement mode of scattering wave are deduced. Some examples and numerical results are illustrated. The influences of the combination of different media parameters on solutions of far field are discussed.

Scattering of SH wave by an elastic half space with a circular cavity and a crack in any position and direction is studied with Green’s function, complex function and multi-polar coordinate method. First, a suitable Green’s function is constructed, which is the fundamental solution of the displacement field for a half space with a circular cavity impacted by an out-plane harmonic line source loading at an arbitrary point in half space. Then a crack in any position and direction is constructed by means of crack-division in half space. Finally the displacement field and stress field are established in the case of coexistence of circular cavity and crack, and the expression of dynamic stress intensity factor (DSIF) at the tip of crack is given. According to numerical examples, the influences of different parameters on DSIF are discussed.

Circular lining is used widely in structure design. In this paper, the method of Green’s function is used to investigate the problem of far field solution of circular lining and linear crack impacted by incident SH-wave. Firstly, a Green’s function is constructed, 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; Secondly, in terms of the solution of SH-wave’s scattering by an elastic space with 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 linear crack is in existent actually; Finally, the expressions of displacement and stress are given when the circular lining and linear crack exist at the same time. Then, the far field of scattered wave is studied. The results can be applied in the study of fracture, and undamaged frame crack detection.

Circular inclusion exists widely in natural media, engineering materials and structures, and defects are usually found around the inclusion. When a composite material with circular inclusion and cracks is impacted by the dynamic load, on the one hand, the scattering field produced by the circular inclusion and cracks determines the dynamic stress concentration factor around the circular inclusion, and therefore determines whether the material is damaged or not; on the other hand, the scattering field also presents many characteristic parameters of the inclusion and cracks such as defect composition, location and shape, so the research on the scattering far-field is important to the geological prospects, seismological investigation, non-destruction evaluation and the other fields. In the ocean acoustics, the scattering far-field of the acoustic wave is also used in the under-water survey, object distinguishing and so on. In theory, the scattering solution of elastic waves is one of the basic topics of reverse problems on elastic wave. On the basis of literature, few paper concentrates on the scattering far-field solution of SH-wave by a circular inclusion and a linear crack around the inclusion. In the paper a new model and a new method are presented in order to investigate deeply on this kind problem. The paper uses the Green’s function to study the scattering far-field of an elastic wave by a circular inclusion and a linear crack. The Green’s function should be a fundamental solution of displacement field for an elastic space possessing a circular inclusion while bearing out-of-plane harmonic line source force at any point. In terms of the solution of SH-wave’s scattering by an elastic space with a circular inclusion, anti-plane stresses which are the same in quantity but opposite in direction to those mentioned before, are loaded at the region where the linear crack is in existent actually; Then, the expressions of the displacement and stresses are given when the circular inclusion and linear crack exist at the same time. When the special Green’s function has been constructed and close field solution has been illustrated, the far field of scattered wave is studied. The displacement mode of scattered wave at far field and scattering cross-section are given. At last, an example is given and its numerical results are discussed.

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.

A method for calculating lattice statics Green's function is described for a bimaterial lattice or a bicrystal containing a plane interface. The method involves creation of two half space lattices containing free surfaces and then joining them to form a bicrystal. The two half space lattices may have different structures as in a two-phase bicrystal or may be of the same type but joined at different orientations to form a grain boundary interface. The method is quite general but, in this paper, has been applied only to a simple model bicrystal formed by two simple cubic lattices with nearest neighbor interactions. The bimaterial Green's function is modified to account for an interfacial crack that is used to calculate the displacement field due to an applied external force. It is found that the displacement field, as calculated by using the lattice theory, does not have the unphysical oscillations predicted by the continuum theory.

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.

The problems of SH-wave scattering caused by a subsurface circular lining structure and a beeline crack with arbitrary length at an arbitrary position were studied by using the methods of Green's function, complex variables and multi-polar coordinates. A adaptive Green's function, an essential solution to the displacement field for the elastic space possessing circular lining structure while bearing out-plane harmonic lining loads at an arbitrary point, was constructed firstly, and then a crack was created using “crack-division”. Thus the expressions of displacement and stress were established while the crack and the inclusion both existed. Finally, we give some numerical examples to discuss the variety of the horizontal surface displacement in the case of different parameters.
