Abstract: | AbstractThe thermoelastic problem of a stretchable rigid line inhomogeneity at a bimaterial interface is considered. The closed-form solution is presented and the explicit expressions of the stress at the tip of the rigid line inhomogeneity are derived. The effects of thermal expansion of rigid line on the stress intensity factors are investigated. It is found that the singularity of stress maintains the same structure, and the stresses possess an apparent oscillatory character, as in the case of a rigid line without the effects of thermal expansion. However, there is a significant difference in the coefficient of the singular behavior of the stresses at the tip of rigid line, which is due to the temperature changes. |
