Yasemen Uçan YTU

Abstract

Within the framework of the piecewise homogeneous body model with the use of the three-dimensional equations of the theory of elasticity for anisotropic body a method that is developed to investigate the stress distribution in the infinite elastic matrix containing a periodically curved row fibres having a sine-phase is used to investigate related normal stresses. It is assumed that the materials of the fibres are the same and midlines of these fibres are in the same plane. Under uniaxial loading along the fibres the normal stresses acting along the fibers at interface points are investigated. The influences of the problem parameters on these
