Abstract

This paper investigates the interaction between a point heat source and a nonuniformly coated circular inclusion under plane deformation. Based on the complex variable theory and conformal mapping in conjunction with the analytical continuation method, the general expressions of the temperature, displacements, and stresses for three dissimilar media are derived explicitly in a series form. Numerical results are provided for some particular examples to investigate the effect of material combinations on the interfacial stresses. The derived analytical solution can also be used as a fundamental solution for the boundary element method as well as for other physical models, including welding and cutting.
