Abstract: A method of potentials is presented for the derivation of the dynamic response of an elastic half-space to an arbitrary, time-harmonic, finite, buried source. The development includes a set of ...

Abstract: An analytical model for the chatter frequency of a turning cutter considering system compliance and flank wear of the tool is presented in this research. The fundamental mechanism of selfexcited ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the torsion of a rigid disk bonded to the bottom of a cylindrical indentation on an elastic half-space. By virtue of Fourier sine and cosine transforms, the mixed ...

Abstract: For the first time, a theoretical formulation is presented for the load-transfer analysis of an elastic cylindrical thin-walled pile immersed in a transversely isotropic half-space under axisymmetric excitations. By ...

Abstract: The smeared-crack approach of strain-softening is a popular engineering concept for the numerical simulation of tensile failure processes in concrete and rock. Despite numerous publications on the equivalent constitutive ...
