heat conduction

Purpose. A two-dimensional mathematical model of the problem of thermo-elasticity for piecewise-homogeneous component plate containing a crack has been built. The stress intensity coefficients in the vertices of the crack increase affecting strength of the body significantly. This leads to the growth of a crack and, as a result, to further local destruction of a material. Therefore, such a model reflects, to some extent, the destruction mechanism of the elements of engineering structures with cracks.

The two-dimensional stationary problems of heat conduction and  thermoelasticity for a semi-infinite elastic body containing an inclusion and a crack  are  considered.  For this purpose, mathematical models of these  two-dimensional problems in the form of a system of singular integral equations (SIEs) of the first and the second kinds are constructed.  The numerical solution of the system of integral equations in the case of a half plane  containing an inclusion and thermally insulated crack due to local heating by a heat flux is obtained using the method of mechanical quadratures.  We pre
