Dynamic problems for a plane and cylindrical viscoelastic layer partially adherent to a stiff ring (Q1820637): Difference between revisions

The plane problem is examined of the shear-vibration of an infinite stiff viscoelastic layer covering that adheres partially to an undeformable cover-foundation: rigidly along a strip of width 2a, and in frictionless contact outside this strip. In addition, an analogous axisymmetric problem is considered for a cylindrical viscoelastic layer. The layer is partially adherent to a ring along one surface: rigidly along a band of width 2a and without friction outside this band, and it is rigidly adherent to a ring vibrating in the axial direction along the other surface. Mixed boundary value problems reduce to the solution of an integral equation of the first kind which reduces, in turn, to an infinite system of linear algebraic equations. Certain results are presented of a numerical solution of the problems posed. Solutions are compared for the visco-elastic and corresponding elastic problems. The efficiency of two methods of solving the integral equation, reduction to an infinite system and approximation of its kernel, is compared for the latter problem.
