Dynamic Stress Concentration of a Circular Cavity Subjected by Steady Plane SH Waves in an Elastic Quarter with a Semi-Circular Canyon

Steady state responses of a circular cavity and a semi-circular canyon subjected by plane SH wave in an elastic quarter are presented by using Fourier-Hankel wave function expansion method and image method with Fourier series expansion on the boundary conditions to determine linear algebraic equations of unknown wave function coefficients. Especially, displacement and stress component expressions are formulated for incident, reflected, scattering waves, respectively. This method can provide an analytical ideas and methods for further studies of elastodynamic interface problems.
