The Reissner-Sagoci problem for a half-space under buried torsional forces
The paper deals with the problem of a rigid circular punch bonded to a homogeneous elastic isotropic half-space loaded internally by torsional forces. Within the framework of linear elasticity, the solution of the problem is constructed as a superposition of the solutions of two simpler problems. The first problem consists in finding of the elastic field in the half-space without the punch under the action of a prescribed internal loading. The second one examines the bonded punch subjected to a tangential displacement. Exact solutions of both problems are derived by constructing Green's function, which corresponds to the action of a unit concentrated force uniformly distributed along a circular ring in the tangential direction. The same approach is also applied to a transversely isotropic half-space.
