Abstract

A modified boundary-element method is proposed to analyze the stress-strain state of a plate with a multilayer inclusion of arbitrary shape. The two-dimensional approximation of displacements on each boundary element makes it possible to determine all the stress/strain components at the interface between the inclusion and each layer. The stress state of a plate with an elliptical and a rectangular multilayer inclusion under unidirectional tension (a load uniformly distributed along the edges) is analyzed as numerical examples. The numerical examples demonstrate high accuracy and computational efficiency of the method
