Öner, Erdal
An analytical method for solving the two-dimensional frictionless continuous contact problem of an orthotropic layer pressed by a rigid stamp is presented in this paper. The orthotropic layer lies on a rigid foundation, and plane-strain orthotropy prevails in the layer, which is not bonded to the rigid foundation. An external load was applied to the orthotropic layer through a rigid stamp. The profiles of flat and cylindrical stamps as stamp shapes were handled separately. The orthotropic layer was assumed to be subjected to uniform vertical body forces owing to the effect of gravity. For values of the resultant compressive force P acting on the stamp vertically that were lesser than a critical value, the continuous contact along the orthotropic layer–rigid foundation interface was maintained. By assuming plane-strain conditions, the governing equations corresponding to the mentioned contact problem were extracted separately in the presence and absence of the body force of the orthotropic layer using the theory of elasticity and the Fourier integral transformation technique. Subsequently, the mixed boundary value problem was reduced to a singular integral equation, and the numerical solution of this singular integral equation was obtained by applying the Gauss–Chebyshev integration formulas. Numerical results reveal the effect of the orthotropic material parameters, stamp length (in the case of a flat stamp), stamp radius (in the case of a cylindrical stamp), applied load on the contact stress distributions, contact length, initial separation load and initial separation distance. The results of this study may provide insights for engineers in fields closely related to contact mechanics.

- MakaleYalnız künye2017Scopus SJRQ3Continuous contact problem of a functionally graded layer resting on an elastic half-plane
Öner, E.; Adiyaman, G.; Birinci, A.
In this study, the continuous contact problem of a functionally graded layer resting on an elastic half-plane and loaded by a rigid rectangular stamp is examined. The problem is solved assuming that the functionally graded (FG) layer is isotropic and the shear modulus and mass density vary exponentially throughout the layer's thickness. However, the body force of the elastic half-plane is neglected. In addition, it is assumed that all surfaces are frictionless and only compressive stress is transferred along the contact surfaces. The mathematical problem is reduced to a singular integral equation in which the contact stress under the rigid stamp is unknown using the Fourier integral transform and boundary conditions related to the problem. This singular integral equation is solved numerically using the Gauss-Chebyshev integration formula. The dimensionless contact stress under the rigid stamp, the initial separation loads and the initial separation distances between the FG layer and the elastic half-plane are obtained for various dimensionless quantities.

Birinci, Ahmet; Adıyaman, Gökhan; Yaylacı, Murat; Öner, Erdal
In this paper, continuous and discontinuous cases of a contact problem for two elastic layers supported by a Winkler foundation are analyzed using both analytical method and finite element method. In the analyses, it is assumed that all surfaces are frictionless, and only compressive normal tractions can be transmitted through the contact areas. Moreover, body forces are taken into consideration only for layers. Firstly, the problem is solved analytically using theory of elasticity and integral transform techniques. Then, the finite element analysis of the problem is carried out using ANSYS software program. Initial separation distances between layers for continuous contact case and the size of the separation areas for discontinuous contact case are obtained for various dimensionless quantities using both solutions. In addition, the normalized contact pressure distributions are calculated for both cases. The analytic results are verified by comparison with finite element results. Finally, conclusions are presented.
