Abstract
This paper deals with the problem of twisting a non-homogeneous, isotropic, half-space by rotating a circular part of its boundary surface (0 ≤ r b, z = 0) is rigidly clamped. The shear modulus is assumed to vary with the cylindrical coordinates, r, z by the relation μ(z) = μ1(c + z)α, c ≠ 0 where μ1, c and α are real constants. Expressions for some quantities of physical importance, such as torque applied at the surface of the disk and stress intensity factors, are obtained. The effects of non-homogeneity on torque and stress intensity factor are illustrated graphically.
