Abstract: This paper presents an exact static stress analysis of a multilayered elastic spherical shell (hollow sphere) completely based on three-dimensional elasticity for spherical isotropy. Two independent ...

Abstract: In this paper, free vibrations of a spherically isotropic spherical shell embedded in an elastic medium of Pasternak type are studied by using a six-mode shell theory that includes effects of ...

Abstract: This paper exactly analyzes the problem of a rigid conical punch indenting a transversely isotropic piezoelectric half-space. The potential theory method is employed and generalized to include ...

Abstract: By virtue of the separation of variables technique, the spherically symmetric electroelastic dynamic problem of a spherically isotropic hollow sphere is transformed to an integral equation about ...

Abstract: Based on three-dimensional elastic theory, three components of displacement are expanded by orthotropic series. A second-order ordinary differential equation set is then obtained that can be solved by Frobenius Method. ...
