Green's functions and boundary element method formulation for 3D anisotropic media

摘要

The implementation of Wang's theoretical solution is presented for elastostatic displacement Green's function for three-dimensional solids of general anisotropy. Excerpts from the authors' FORTRAN code are included. A numerical algorithm for the calculation of the derivatives of the Green's displacements and stresses is also introduced. These implementations have been incorporated into a boundary element method (BEM) code developed by the authors. The numerical results of Green's displacements, stresses and stress derivatives are in perfect agreement with closed-form solutions for transversely isotropic solids. The BEM code results are also in very close agreement with both exact
