Imperfect Interfaces and Discrete Lattice Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We propose a model where a lattice structure is used within an interface layer of finite thickness. An evolution problem is set and studied to analyze the structural changes within the interface ...
Crack Propagation in a Brittle Elastic Material With Defects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A two-dimensional asymptotic solution is presented for determination of the trajectory of a crack propagating in a brittle-elastic, isotropic medium containing small defects. Brittleness of the ...
Lattice Green’s Functions in Nonlinear Analysis of Defects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for analyzing problems involving defects in lattices is presented. Special attention is paid to problems in which the lattice containing the defect is infinite, and the response in a ...
Transmission and Polarization of Elastic Waves in Irregular Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Propagation of elastic waves in an infinite elastic medium containing a finite array of circular cylindrical cavities is considered. It is assumed that the cavities are equally spaced within ...
