โœฆ Synopsis


A quasi-static analysis of an anti-plane strain crack in a radially inhomogeneous viscoelastic material is carried out. Laplace and Mellin transform methods are used to construct explicit expressions for the stress and displacement fields. Results show that the stress field may exhibit both logarithmic and power-law type singularities and for special cases of material inhomogeneity the asymptotic behavior at the crack tip is determined by a logarithmic singularity. The effects of time and material inhomogeneity upon the stresses and displacements are numerically illustrated.

The Energy Release Rate (ERR) for the quasi-static problem of a semi-infinite mode I crack propagating through an inhomogeneous isotropic linearly viscoelastic body is examined. The shear modulus is assumed to have a power-law dependence on depth from the plane of the crack and a very general behavi

In this paper, we wish to use complex potential methods to solve the fundamental complete plane strain (CPS) problems of a three-dimensional nonhomogeneous elastic body with a doubly-periodic set of cracks in the x 1 , x 2 plane. We resolve the complete plane strain state, which is a special three-d
