The material dumping, known also as inner friction or, simply hysteresis, is considered to be related to energy dissipation in the volume of a macro-continuous medium. This phenomenon takes place when a more or less ...

These authors published theoretical results upon the stress state induced in an elastic half-plane containing a circular hole by a point force applied on its boundary. The solutions were found in bipolar co-ordinates and ...

The paper presents an analytic solution for the stress states in an elastic plan where two unequal circular holes are lying. At infinity, the elastic plane is sheared. To solve the problem, the authors used bipolar ...
