Order of singularity and singular stress field about an axisymmetric interface corner in three-dimensional isotropic elasticity

The spatial axisymmetric problem of an isotropic, elastic, homogeneous body containing an inclusion of a different material with an interface corner point (along a circular contour) and arbitrary joining angles is considered in this paper. It is found that the order of the stress singularity at the interface corner coincides with that of the corresponding plane strain problem, but the dependence of the singular stress field on the material properties depends on both the Poisson ratios (of the two isotropic materials) as well as on the ratio of their shear moduli. The theoretical results have been confirmed by numerical, finite-element-based results in a special bimaterial case.
