Two-Dimensional Stress Analysis of an Infinite Plate with Anisotropic Inclusions by BFM

Abstract:

Based on the principle of a Body Force Method (BFM), any inclusion problem can besolved only by using a Kelvin solution which corresponds to a stress field caused by a point forceacting in a homogeneous infinite plate, regardless of the mechanical properties of the inclusion. Thischaracteristic is true even for an anisotropic inclusion in which the number of independent elasticconstants are larger than that of a homogeneous material. In the present study, some problems among anisotropic inclusions were analyzed numerically to demonstrate the validity.
