Penny-shaped crack in transversely isotropic piezoelectric materials

Using a method of potential functions introduced successively to integrate the field equations of three-dimensional problems for transversely isotropic piezoelectric materials, we obtain the so-called general solution in which the displacement components and electric potential functions are represented by a singular function satisfying some special partial differential equations of 6th order. In order to analyse the mechanical-electric coupling behaviour of penny-shaped crack for above materials, another form of the general solution is obtained under cylindrical coordinate system by introducing three quasi-harmonic functions into the general equations obtained above. It is shown that both the two forms of the general solutions are complete. Furthermore, the mechanical-electric coupling behaviour of penny-shaped crack in transversely isotropic piezoelectric media is analysed under axisymmetric tensile loading case, and the crack-tip stress field and electric displacement field are obtained. The results show that the stress and the electric displacement components near the crack tip have (r ^−1/2) singularity.

Analysis of an Anisotropic Finite Wedge under Antiplane Deformation

The antiplane deformation of an anisotropic wedge with finite radius is considered in this paper within the classical linear theory of elasticity. The traction-free condition is imposed on the circular segment of the wedge. Three different cases of boundary conditions on the radial edges are considered, which are: traction-displacement, displacement-displacement and traction-traction. The solution to the governing differential equation of the problem is accomplished in the complex plane by relating the displacement field to a complex function. Several complex transformations are defined on this complex function and its first and second derivatives to formulate the problem in each of the three cases of the problem corresponding to the radial boundary conditions, separately. These transformations are then related to integral transforms which are complex analogies to the standard finite Mellin transforms of the first and second kinds. Closed form expressions are obtained for the displacement and stress fields in the entire domain. In all cases, explicit expressions for the strength of singularity are derived. These expressions show the dependence of the order of stress singularity on the wedge angle and material constants. In the displacement-displacement case, depending upon the applied displacement, a new type of stress singularity has been observed at the wedge apex. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A MODE Ⅱ CRACK IN A TWO-DIMENSIONAL OCTAGONAL QUASICRYSTALS

The present study develops the fracture theory for a two-dimensional octagonal quasicrystals. The exact analytic solution of a Mode Ⅱ Griffith crack in the material was obtained by using the Fourier transform and dual integral equations theory, then the displacement and stress fields, stress intensity factor and strain energy release rate were determined, the physical sense of the results relative to phason and the difference between mechanical behaviors of the crack problem in crystal and quasicrystal were figured out. These provide important information for studying the deformation and fracture of the new solid phase.     

Two kinds of contact problems in three-dimensional icosahedral quasicrystals

Two kinds of contact problems, i.e., the frictional contact problem and the adhesive contact problem, in three-dimensional(3D) icosahedral quasicrystals are discussed by a complex variable function method. For the frictional contact problem, the contact stress exhibits power singularities at the edge of the contact zone. For the adhesive contact problem, the contact stress exhibits oscillatory singularities at the edge of the contact zone. The numerical examples show that for the two kinds of contact problems, the contact stress exhibits singularities, and reaches the maximum value at the edge of the contact zone. The phonon-phason coupling constant has a significant effect on the contact stress intensity, while has little impact on the contact stress distribution regulation. The results are consistent with those of the classical elastic materials when the phonon-phason coupling constant is 0. For the adhesive contact problem, the indentation force has positive correlation with the contact displacement, but the phonon-phason coupling constant impact is barely perceptible. The validity of the conclusions is verified.

A unified treatment of axisymmetric adhesive contact problems using the harmonic potential function method

A unified treatment of axisymmetric adhesive contact problems is provided using the harmonic potential function method for axisymmetric elasticity problems advanced by Green, Keer, Barber and others. The harmonic function adopted in the current analysis is the one that was introduced by Jin et al. (2008) to solve an external crack problem. It is demonstrated that the harmonic potential function method offers a simpler and more consistent way to treat non-adhesive and adhesive contact problems. By using this method and the principle of superposition, a general solution is derived for the adhesive contact problem involving an axisymmetric rigid punch of arbitrary shape and an adhesive interaction force distribution of any profile. This solution provides analytical expressions for all non-zero displacement and stress components on the contact surface, unlike existing ones. In addition, the newly derived solution is able to link existing solutions/models for axisymmetric non-adhesive and adhesive contact problems and to reveal the connections and differences among these solutions/models individually obtained using different methods at various times. Specifically, it is shown that Sneddon’s solution for the axisymmetric punch problem, Boussinesq’s solution for the flat-ended cylindrical punch problem, the Hertz solution for the spherical punch problem, the JKR model, the DMT model, the M-D model, and the M-D-n model can all be explicitly recovered by the current general solution.

The radially nonhomogeneous elastic axisymmentric problem

The plane axisymmetric problem with axisymmetric geometry and loading is analyzed for a radially nonhomogeneous circular cylinder, in linear elasticity. Considering the radial dependence of the stress, the displacements fields and of the stiffness matrix, after a series of admissible functional manipulations, the general differential system solving the problem is developed. The isotopic radially inhomogeneous elastic axisymmetric problem is also analyzed. The exact elasticity solution is developed for a radially nonhomogeneous hollow circular cylinder of exponential Young’s modulus and constant Poisson’s ratio and of power law Young’s modulus and constant Poisson’s ratio. For the isotropic elastic axisymmetric problem, a general expression of the stress function is derived. After the satisfaction of the biharmonic equation and making compatible the stress field’s expressions, the stress function and the stress and displacements fields of the axisymmetric problem are also deduced. Applications have been made for a radially nonhomogeneous hollow cylinder where the stress and displacements fields are determined.     

The contact problem of a rubber half-space dented by a rigid cone apex

Summary  The smooth contact of a rubber half-space dented by a rigid cone apex is analyzed based on the large deformation theory. The problem is treated as an axially symmetric case, and the material is assumed to be incompressible. The asymptotic equations for the domain near the apex are derived. They are solved analytically for the shrinking domain, while a numerical solution is found for the expanding domain in the vicinity of the stress singularity. The purpose of this paper is not only to solve a typical problem but also to provide an analytical method to solve a large-strain problem with a singular point.

Subsonic semi-infinite crack with a finite friction zone in a bimaterial

Propagation of a semi-infinite crack along the interface between an elastic half-plane and a rigid half-plane is analyzed. The crack advances at constant subsonic speed. It is assumed that, ahead of the crack, there is a finite segment where the conditions of Coulomb friction law are satisfied. The contact zone of unknown a priori length propagates with the same speed as the crack. The problem reduces to a vector Riemann–Hilbert problem with a piece-wise constant matrix coefficient discontinuous at three points, 0, 1, and ∞. The problem is solved exactly in terms of Kummer's solutions of the associated hypergeometric differential equation. Numerical results are reported for the length of the contact friction zone, the stress singularity factor, the normal displacement u₂, and the dynamic energy release rate G. It is found that in the case of frictionless contact for both the sub-Rayleigh and super-Rayleigh regimes, G is positive and the stress intensity factor K_II does not vanish. In the sub-Rayleigh case, the normal displacement is positive everywhere in the opening zone. In the super-Rayleigh regime, there is a small neighborhood of the ending point of the open zone where the normal displacement is negative.     

Three-dimensional interfacial fracture analysis of a one-dimensional hexagonal quasicrystal coating

In this paper, the three-dimensional (3D) interfacial fracture is analyzed in a one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal quasicrystal (QC) coating structure under mechanical loading. A planar interface crack with arbitrary shape is studied by a displacement discontinuity method. Fundamental solutions of interfacial concentrated displacement discontinuities are obtained by the Hankel transform technique, and the corresponding boundary integral-differential equations are constructed with the superposition principle. Green’s functions of constant interfacial displacement discontinuities within a rectangular element are derived, and a boundary element method is proposed for numerical simulation. The singularity of stresses near the crack front is investigated, and the stress intensity factors (SIFs) as well as energy release rates (ERRs) are determined. Finally, relevant influencing factors on the fracture behavior are discussed.
