Free-space Green's function of a transversely isotropic elastic medium subjected to a ringlike load. 2nd report. Strain and stress solution.

Abstract

In this paper, we deal with one of the methods to obtain a set of the free-space Green's function (fundamental solution) with respect to strain and stress components of a transversely isotropic infinite elastic medium which is subjected to a ringlike axisymmetric load. We assume that the load is tortionless. The solutions consist of the strain and the stress components of the infinite elastic medium subjected to the load of radial and axial directions, respectively.
