Green Function of a Point Dislocation in Thin Plate with a Partially Debonded Inclusion

Article Preview

Abstract:

The study of debonding is of importance in providing a good understanding of the bonded interfaces of dissimilar materials. The problem of debonding of an arbitrarily shaped rigid inclusion in an infinite plate with a point dislocation of thin plate bending is investigated in this paper. Herein, the point dislocation is defined with respect to the difference of the plate deflection angle. An analytical solution is obtained by using the complex stress function approach and the rational mapping function technique. In the derivation, the fundamental solutions of the stress boundary value problem are taken as the principal parts of the corresponding stress functions, and through analytical continuation, the problem of obtaining the complementary stress function is reduced to a Riemann-Hilbert problem. Without loss of generality, numerical results are calculated for a square rigid inclusion with a debonding. It is noted that the stress components are singular at the dislocation point, and a stress concentration can be found in the vicinity of the inclusion corner.
