Shear wave scattering from a partially debonded elastic elliptic inclusion (Q1891907): Difference between revisions

Earlier we solved the problem of an elliptic arc crack subjected to anti- plane shear waves by using the wave function expansion method and singular integral equation technique. In this paper we extend the analysis to the scattering of shear waves by a partially debonded elastic elliptic inclusion. The debonding region is modeled as an interface crack with non-contacting faces. A singular integral equation is derived in terms of the dislocation density function and solved numerically to calculate the dynamic stress intensity factor and the scattering cross section.
