Takashi Tsutsumi, Hiroshi Arai and Ken-ichi Hirashima

Abstract:Very few studies on two dimensional elastic semi-infinite plane with circular hole subjected to arbitrary loads st the circular hole are conducted foe estimating displacement because of difficulties in treatment. This paper presents the method for estimating displacement of semi-infinite plane with circular hole subjected to arbitrary load on circular hole by using constraint-release technique which repeats superposing solutions of infinite plane with circular hole and semi-infinite plane to converge boundary conditions on both of boundaries. Some numerical results are shown by graphical representation.

Key Words:Isotropy, Elasticity, Semi-infinite plane, Circular hole, Arbitrary load
