Abstract: The problem of an infinite isotropic elastic space subjected to uniform far-field load and containing an isotropic elastic spherical inhomogeneity with Steigmann–Ogden interface is considered. The interface is treated as ...

Abstract: Modern advances in material science and surface chemistry lead to creation of composite materials with enhanced mechanical, thermal, and other properties. It is now widely accepted that the enhancements are achieved due ...

Abstract: The plane strain problem of an isotropic elastic matrix subjected to uniform far-field load and containing multiple stiff prestressed arcs located on the same circle is considered. The boundary conditions for the arcs are ...
