Axisymmentric analysis of multi-layered transversely isotropic elastic media with general interlayer and support conditions

J.S. Lee and L.Z. Jiang

Abstract

Based on the transfer matrix approach and integral transforms, a solution method is developed for the stress analysis of axisymmetrically loaded transversely isotropic elastic media with generalized interlayer and support conditions. Transfer functions (Green
