Fundamental Solutions for Cylindrically Anisotropic Elastic Medium

Abstract

Basic equations are derived for a cylindrically anisotropic elastic medium of two-dimensional in-plane problems and out-of-plane shear problems, and general solutions for a circular ring with prescribed stress boundary conditions are obtained by the form of Fourier series. Further, a closed-form solution is also derived for the concentrated force. Numerical results for stress distribution are also shown.
