Multiple Interacting Circular Nano-Inhomogeneities with Surface/Interface Effects in an Elastic Half-Plane

Based on the surface/interface theory of Gurtin and Murdoch, employing the boundary integral method, the problem of an isotropic elastic half-plane containing multiple circular nano-inhomogeneities was considered. The numerical solution of any point at the nano-inhomogeneities and half-plane with surface/interface effects was obtained. At last, the numerical examples of a nano-inhomogeneity embedded into the half-plane were given and the effect of existence of nano scale surface to the stress field of the whole half-plane structure was analyzed.
