Abstract

As has been shown in Chap. 5, in one-dimensional quasicrystals, elasticity can be decomposed into plane elasticity and anti-plane elasticity in case that the configuration is independent of the quasiperiodic axis. In this case, plane elasticity is a classical elasticity problem and its solutions are well known, whereas the anti-plane elasticity is a problem concerned with the quasiperiodic structure, which is our main concern. This decomposition leads to great simplifications for the solution.
