The elastodynamic bimaterial interface under mode I and mode II loading

“…Our solutions enable the modelling of these crack's propagation as convolution kernels. Finally, the solutions presented here pave the way for the analytic study of the bimaterial contact problem in the presence of friction, which can now be achieved using an approach similar to that discussed in [64,48]. Consequently, this article offers an analytic treatment for a problem of significance both in geophysics and materials science: elastic wave scattering by a bimaterial interface.…”

“…A slipping interface is an interface that in mode I carries no shear stress; by mathematical analogy, in mode II we improperly call 'slipping' an interface that carries no normal stress. In single material problems, the interface is always slipping by symmetry (see for instance [47,48]). This is not necessarily the case in bimaterial systems, where the symmetry argument does not stand anymore as the materials at either side of the interface are different.…”
