Longitudinal wave propagation in an infinite isotropic elastic plate with a penny-shaped crack

Extract
The stress distribution, subject to a constant pressure over the entire surface of a penny-shaped crack is discussed by Sneddon(4). Recently, Robertson (3) has considered the diffraction of a plane longitudinal wave by a penny-shaped crack on a semi-infinite elastic solid. In the present analysis, the propagation of longitudinal wave in an infinite isotropic elastic plate with a penny-shaped crack in the middle has been investigated. The plane longitudinal wave is moving in the positive direction of z-azis and is impinging on the surface of the penny-shaped crack. The dual integral equation technique of Noble(l) is utilized to solve the mixed boundary-value problem. The analysis closely follows the method used in the author's previous paper (2). The vertical displacement is analysed numerically.
