Abstract: Solutions are presented, within the scope of classical elastostatics, for a class of asymmetric mixed boundary-value problems of the elastic half-space. The boundary conditions considered are ...

Abstract: The study of a single broken fiber embedded in an infinite elastic matrix subjected to a uniform far-field strain is presented. The solution, which accounts for the presence of interface ...

Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of delamination growth prior to its buckling using mathematical techniques appropriate for mixed boundary value problems. The formulation presented herein does not ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analytical solution to the problem of local buckling induced by delamination of a layered plate. Delamination growth and buckling is an observed failure mode in laminated ...

Abstract: The problem of determining the response of a rigid strip footing bonded to an elastic half plane is considered. The footing is subjected to vertical, shear, and moment forces with harmonic ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the solution of mixed boundary-value problems arising from the longitudinal shear and Saint-Venant torsion and flexure of cracked prismatic beams. The members considered ...

Abstract: This paper discusses a two-dimensional elastostatic plate theory in which effects of both transverse shearing strain and normal strain are retained. The governing system of equations is deduced ...

Abstract: The viscoelastic analysis of tape systems composed of rate-dependent materials is presented. Histories for winding, winding-pause, and winding-pause-unwinding are considered. The winding problem is ...
