Abstract: | This paper gives a unified approach to analyze two-dimensional elastic deformations of a composite body consisting of two
dissimilar anisotropic or isotropic materials perfectly bonded along a planar interface. The Eshelby et al. formalism of anisotropic
elasticity is linked with that of Kolosov-Muskhelishvili for isotropic elasticity by means of two complex matrix functions
describing completely the arising elastic fields. These functions, whose elements are holomorphic functions, are defined as
the two-phase potentials of the bimaterial. The present work is concerned with bi-materials whose constituent materials occupy
the whole space and are connected by a planar interface. The elastic fields arising in such a bimaterial are given by universal
relationships in terms of the two-phase potentials. Then, the general results obtained are implemented to study two interesting
bimaterial problems: the problem of a uniformly stressed bimaterial with a perfect interfacial bonding, and the interface
crack problem of a bimaterial with a general loading. For both problems, all combinations of the elastic properties of the
constituent materials are considered. For the first problem, the constraints, which must be imposed between the components
of the applied uniform stress fields, are established, so that they are admissible as elastic fields of the bimaterial. For
the interface crack problem, the solution is obtained for a general loading applied in the body. Detailed results are given
for the case of a remote uniform stress field applied to the bimaterial constituents. |
