Abstract

In this paper, the degenerate kernel and superposition technique are employed to solve the screw dislocation problems with circular holes or inclusions. The problem is decomposed into the screw dislocation problem with several holes and the interior Laplace problems for several circular inclusions. Following the success of the null-field integral equation approach, the typical boundary value problems can be solved easily. The kernel functions and unknown boundary densities are expanded by using the degenerate kernel and Fourier series, respectively. To the authors’ best knowledge, the angle-type fundamental solution is first derived in terms of degenerate kernel in this paper. Finally, four examples are demonstrated to verify the validity of the present approach.
