Abstract: | Summary In the present paper, the thermal and thermo-elastic response of a bi-material to temperature changes is analyzed, when its
interface exhibits a simultaneous weakness in traction transferring and heat flow conducting (feeble interface). Such a pathological behavior of an interface is described by two sets of constitutive relationships relating the heat flow
passing through the interface to the temperature jump and the interfacial components of the traction to those of the displacement
jump. The bimaterial model considered is that of a circular inhomogeneity in an elastic matrix with linear forms of the constitutive
relationships. When the solutions of both heat conduction and thermoelastic problems with a perfect interface are known, the
corresponding problems with a feeble interface are reduced to the solution of two dislocation problems: a heat conduction
problem with an appropriate temperature dislocation applied across the interface, and an elasticity problem with an appropriate
displacement dislocation of Somigliana type acting across the interface. For both dislocation problems, general representations
of their solutions in terms of two-phase potential functions of complex variables are provided. Detailed analytical results
are given for a circular inhomogeneity with a feeble interface disturbing a linear distribution of the temperature change
in the matrix. In this case, the stress field within the inhomogeneity has a linear distribution and it vanishes for the limiting
case of a sliding interface. For a specific value of the interface parameter H, which characterizes the thermal imperfection, there are no shear stresses within the inhomogeneity. Finally, since the constitutive
laws describing the thermal and mechanical interface behavior correlate tensors of different order, the resulting fields in
the system are drastically affected by the inhomogeneity size. |
