INTERACTION OF ANTIPLANE SHEAR WAVE WITH PERIO DICALLY ARRAYED INTERFACE CRACKS

In this paper, the interaction of antiplane shear waves with periodicallyarrayed cracks at the interface of two bonded dissimilar elastic half-space is considered. By using the finite Fourier transform techniques, the solution of the mixed boundary value problem for a typical strip is reduced to a set of singular integral equation with a singular kernel of ctgπ/L(u-x), where L is the width of the periodical strip. By means of Chebyshev polynomial, theequation is solved numerically. And finally, the variatio...
