Analysis and Prediction of the Dynamic Antiplane Characteristics of an Elastic Wedge-Shaped Quarter-Space Containing a Circular Hole

Based on the wave function expansion method, the dynamic antiplane characteristics of a wedge-shaped quarter-space containing a circular hole are studied in a complex coordinate system. The wedge-shaped medium is decomposed into two subregions along the virtual boundary using the virtual region decomposition method. The scattering wave field in subregion I is constructed by the mirror method, and the standing wave field in region II is constructed by the fractional Bessel function. According to the continuity conditions at the virtual boundary and the stress-free boundary of the circular hole, the unknown coefficients of the wave fields are obtained by the Fourier integral transform, and the analytical solution of the dynamic stress concentration factor (DSCF) of the circular hole is then obtained. Through parametric analysis, the effects of incident wave frequency, geometry of the wedge, and corner slope on the DSCF of the circular hole are discussed. The results show that when the SH-wave is horizontally incidence at high frequencies, the DSCF of the circular hole can be significantly changed by introducing the corner slope. Moreover, when the corner slope is high, the maximum DSCF can be amplified about 1.2 times. Finally, the back propagation (BP) neural network prediction model of DSCF is established, and the coefficient of regression is found to reach more than 0.99.
