Yh. Park et al., CONTACT MECHANICS ANALYSIS OF FRICTIONAL SLIP OF INCLUSIONS EMBEDDED IN DISSIMILAR MATRICES USING THE BOUNDARY-ELEMENT METHOD, Journal of strain analysis for engineering design, 30(4), 1995, pp. 245-255
A contact mechanics approach, based on the implementation of the bound
ary element method, is used to analyse the stress distribution and fri
ctional slip behaviour around spherical inclusions and cylindrical fib
res embedded in infinite dissimilar matrices. A comparison between the
boundary element and the corresponding finite element solutions shows
good agreement between the two approaches. A range of inclusion/matri
x elastic material properties is covered in the analysis together with
a mismatch in thermal properties and thermal cooling.
