Abstract
A spatial problem of elasticity theory is solved for a layer located on two bearings embedded in it. The bearings are represented as thick-walled pipes embedded in the layer parallel to its boundaries. The pipes are rigidly connected to the layer, and contact-type conditions (normal displacements and tangential stresses) are specified on the insides of the pipes. Stresses are set on the flat surfaces of the layer. The objective of this study is to obtain the stress–strain state of the body of the layer under different geometric characteristics of the model. The solution to the problem is presented in the form of the Lamé equation, whose terms are written in different coordinate systems. The generalized Fourier method is used to transfer the basic solutions between coordinate systems. By satisfying the boundary and conjugation conditions, the problem is reduced to a system of infinite linear algebraic equations of the second kind, to which the reduction method is applied. After finding the unknowns, using the generalized Fourier method, it is possible to find the stress–strain state at any point of the body. The numerical study of the stress state showed high convergence of the approximate solutions to the exact one. The stress–strain state of the composite body was analyzed for different geometric parameters and different pipe materials. The results obtained can be used for the preliminary determination of the geometric parameters of the model and the materials of the joints. The proposed solution method can be used not only to calculate the stress state of bearing joints, but also of bushings (under specified conditions of rigid contact without friction on the internal surfaces).
