THE EFFECT OF PURE SHEAR ON THE REFLECTION OF PLANE WAVES AT THE BOUNDARY OF AN ELASTIC HALF-SPACE
This paper is concerned with the effect of pure shear on the reflection from a plane boundary of infinitesimal plane waves propagating in a half-space of incompressible isotropic elastic material. For a special class of constitutive laws it is shown that an incident plane harmonic wave propagating in the considered plane gives rise to a surface wave in addition to a reflected wave (with angle o...
متن کاملIndentation of an elastic half space with material properties varying with depth.
We consider the effect of an elastic modulus that decreases with depth on the load-displacement relation for indentation of a graded half space by a rigid indenter. A closed-form approximation incorporating features of the plate on an elastic substrate and the Hertzian contact theory is compared with finite element results for the case of a uniform stiff layer on a homogeneous substrate. Some g...
متن کاملRayleigh Wave in an Incompressible Fibre-Reinforced Elastic Solid Half-Space
In this paper, the equation of motion for an incompressible transversely isotropic fibre-reinforced elastic solid is derived in terms of a scalar function. The general solution of the equation of motion is obtained, which satisfies the required radiation condition. The appropriate traction free boundary conditions are also satisfied by the solution to obtain the required secular equation for...
متن کاملImpact of an elastic sphere with an elastic half space revisited: Numerical analysis based on the method of dimensionality reduction
An impact of an elastic sphere with an elastic half space under no-slip conditions (infinitely large coefficient of friction) is studied numerically using the method of dimensionality reduction. It is shown that the rebound velocity and angular velocity, written as proper dimensionless variables, are determined by a function of only the ratio of tangential and normal stiffness ("Mindlin-ratio")...
متن کاملApplication of the Reciprocal Theorem to Some Problems for the Elastic Half-space
BEl-rt's reciprocal theorem is used to determine the normal displacements due to a normal point force at the plane surface o fa generally-anisotropic half-space or a transversely-isotropic general elastic foundation, using a state of plane sinusoidal loading as auxiliary solution. The method is also extended to give a dual integral equation formulation of the axisymmetric contact problem for an...
