Özet

A half-plane covered with a prestretched layer is considered under the action of a periodic dynamic (harmonic) lineal load applied to the free surface of the layer. Within the framework of a piecewise homegeneous body model, with the use of equations of the three-dimensional linearized theory of elastic waves in initially stressed bodies, the problem of stress state is formulated. It is assumed that the materials of the layer and half-plane are linearly elastic, homogeneous, and isotropic, and a plane strain state is considered. The corresponding boundary-value problems are solved analyticaly by employing the exponential Fourier tran formations. Numerical results are obtained in the case where the elastic modulus of the half-plane material is greater than that of the layer material. It is established that, because of softening of the layer material, the stresses on the interplane increase mainly in the vicinity of the acting force and this increase has a local character. Moreover, it is established that the prestretching of the cover layer decreases the absolute values of these stresses.
