Abstract:
Summary Analytical solutions are proposed for the stress and displacement fields induced by in-plane loading of a bimaterial under several boundary conditions. The two joined orthotropic layers forming the bimaterial are allowed to possess different types of anisotropy with their planes of elastic symmetry arbitrarily inclined with respect to the horizontal.
