In this study, stress and displacement functions of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity for homogeneous isotropic bodies are derived from first principles from the differential equations of equilibrium, the generalized stress – strain laws and the geometric relations of strain and displacement. It is found that the stress and displacement functions must be biharmonic functions. The deriv...

In this paper torsion of hollow Poroelastic shaft with Elliptical section is developed. Using the boundary equation scheme. It looks for a stress function where satisfied Poisson equation and vanishes on boundary. It also analyzed stress function and warping displacement for the hollow elliptical section in Poroelastic shaft. At the end, the result of elastic and poroelastic shaft in warping di...

by virtue of a complete set of two displacement potentials, an analytical derivation of the elastostatic green’s functions of an exponentially graded transversely isotropic bi-material full-space was presented. three-dimensional point-load green’s functions for stresses and displacements were given in line-integral representations. the formulation included a complete set of transformed stress-p...

this paper is concerned with investigation of vertical impedance function of a surface rigid circular foundation resting on a semi-infinite transversely isotropic alluvium. to this end, the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinate system, which because of axissymmetry are two coupled equations, are converted into one partial differential equation using a method of potential function. the g...

In this paper a variationally consistent trigonometric shear deformation theory is presented for the free vibration of thick isotropic square and rectangular plate. In this displacement based theory, the in-plane displacement field uses sinusoidal function in terms of thickness coordinate to include the shear deformation effect. The cosine function in terms of thickness coordinate is used in tr...

In a 1977 paper, Diaconis and Graham studied what Knuth calls the total displacement of a permutation w, which is the sum of the distances |w(i)−i|. In recent work of the first author and Tenner, this statistic appears as twice the type An−1 version of a statistic for Coxeter groups called the depth of w. There are various enumerative results for this statistic in the work of Diaconis and Graha...

A type of nonlinearity in vibrational engineering systems emerges when the restoring force is a nonlinear function of displacement. The derivative of this function is known as stiffness. If the stiffness increases by increasing the value of displacement from the equilibrium position, then the system is known as hardening type oscillator and if the stiffness decreases by increasing the value of ...
