Solution of a Problem Linear Plane Elasticity with Mixed Boundary Conditions by the Method of Boundary Integrals

الملخص EN

A numerical boundary integral scheme is proposed for the solution to the system of eld equations of plane.

The stresses are prescribed on one-half of the circle, while the displacements are given.

The considered problem with mixed boundary conditions in the circle is replaced by two problems with homogeneous boundary conditions, one of each type, having a common solution.

The equations are reduced to a system of boundary integral equations, which is then discretized in the usual way, and the problem at this stage is reduced to the solution to a rectangular linear system of algebraic equations.

The unknowns in this system of equations are the boundary values of four harmonic functions which define the full elastic solution and the unknown boundary values of stresses or displacements on proper parts of the boundary.

On the basis of the obtained results, it is inferred that a stress component has a singularity at each of the two separation points, thought to be of logarithmic type.

The results are discussed and boundary plots are given.

We have also calculated the unknown functions in the bulk directly from the given boundary conditions using the boundary collocation method.

The obtained results in the bulk are discussed and three-dimensional plots are given.

A tentative form for the singular solution is proposed and the corresponding singular stresses and displacements are plotted in the bulk.

The form of the singular tangential stress is seen to be compatible with the boundary values obtained earlier.

The efficiency of the used numerical schemes is discussed.
