Abstract

AbstractThis paper is the continuity of our previous work (Commun Numer Meth Engng 2003; 19: 25–36) which applies the 2D time domain boundary element method (BEM) to solve the transient scattering of SH waves by an inclusion with a unilateral frictional contact interface. The case of the plane wave (P and/or SV wave) incidence is studied. Localized slip and separation at the interface caused by strong incident waves are considered. Therefore the interface involves three different kinds of unknown intervals: slip, separation and stick regions. In order to determine the unknown intervals, an iterative technique is developed. As an example, we compute the scattering of P waves by a cylinder of circular cross‐section embedded in an infinite solid. Numerical results for the near field solutions are presented. The distortion of the response waves and the variation of the interface states are discussed. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
