Abstract: The problem of torsion of a rigid punch in contact with an elastic layer where the friction law is arbitrary is solved by the method of A. H. England [11]. The solution is seen to depend ...

Abstract: The problem of a line bond between two layers is solved by techniques appropriate to the plane theory of elasticity. Integral transforms are used to reduce the problem to singular integral ...

Abstract: The vibration and stability of plates with mixed edge conditions are considered in this paper. A simply supported rectangular plate which is clamped along the central portion on two opposite ...

Abstract: Based on a hybrid superposition of an indentation contact and a rolling contact an analytical procedure is developed to evaluate the effects of surface adhesion during steady-state rolling ...

Abstract: A general mathematical formulation to analyze cracks in a multilayered medium is constructed. First, a matrix for a single layer is formed in the Hankel transformed domain. Then a global matrix ...

Abstract: The problem of an elastic half plane loaded in tension and weakened by a rectangular trench is set up in a manner leading to a system of simultaneous singular integral equations. The method ...
