Analysis of Antiplane Problems Subject to Singular Disturbances for Isotropic Elastic or Viscoelastic Medium Containing Several Circular Inclusions

Mutsumi MIYAGAWA and Ken-ichi HIRASHIMA

Abstract:This paper presents the antiplane solutions of isotropic elastic or viscoelastic medium(matrix) containing several different isotropic circular elastic or viscoelastic inclusions subject to uniform anti-plane shear stresses as well asanti-plane concentrated force or screw dislocation at a finite point. The analyses are based on the complex variable method using the Mobius transformation and the correspondence theorem of elasticity and viscoelasticity. Capital numerical examples are illustrated.

Key Words:Isotropic Viscoelasticity, Correspondence Theorem, Many Different Circular Inclusions, Anti-Plane Shear Loading, Concentrated Force, Screw Dislocation
