Results indicate that saturation significantly influences the surface displacement amplitude. The maximum surface displacement amplitude in the single-layer lined tunnel at low saturation levels exceeds that observed at high soil saturation. The surface displacement amplitude inside the single-layer lined tunnel and on its left side varies sharply and remains high across different incident frequencies. Conversely, the surface displacement amplitude on the right side of the single-layer lined tunnel exhibits a relatively gentle change and is lower. This variation becomes more pronounced with increasing frequency. At a low wave frequency, the displacement amplitude of the single-layer lined tunnel decreases with the increase of the burial depth.

The spherical robot is subject to holonomic and nonholonomic constraints. Some point target moves at the level of the geometric center of the spherical robot and does not touch the moving platform itself. The motion program that allows the spherical robot to pursue a target is specified through two servo-constraints. The robot can follow a target from any position and with any initial conditions. Two ways to control this system in absolute space are proposed: by controlling the forced motion of the platform (the pendulum oscillates freely) and by controlling the torque of the pendulum (the platform is stationary or oscillates inconsistently with the spherical robot). The equations of motion of the system are constructed. In the case of free oscillations of the pendulum, the system of equations of motion has first integrals and, if necessary, can be reduced to a fixed level of these integrals. When a spherical robot moves in a straight line, for a system reduced to the level of integrals, phase curves, graphs of the distance from the geometric center of the spherical robot to the target, the trajectory of the selected platform point when controlling the platform, and the square of the control torque when controlling the pendulum actuator are constructed. When the robot moves along a curved path, integration is carried out in the original variables.

The point is also under the influence of a disturbing potential, assumed to be an arbitrary function of time and Cartesian coordinates of the point’s location, and under the influence of a disturbing acceleration, assumed to be an arbitrary function of time, the radius vector and the point’s velocity vector. The conditions for the reducibility of the presented quaternion equations of perturbed central motion to an oscillatory form are considered using three regularizing functions containing the distance to the center of the field. Various differential quaternion equations of perturbed central motion in oscillatory and normal forms, constructed using this theory, are presented, including regular equations that use four-dimensional Euler (Rodrigues–Hamilton) parameters or four-dimensional Kustaanheimo–Stiefel variables or their modifications, proposed by us. Regular quaternion equations of spatial unperturbed central motion of a material point, connections of the four-dimensional variables used with orbital elements, and a uniformized solution to the spatial problem of unperturbed central motion are considered. As an application, regularized differential quaternion equations of motion of an artificial satellite in the Earth’s gravitational field are presented in four-dimensional Kustaanheimo-Stiefel variables, as well as in our modified four-dimensional variables and in Euler parameters. An analysis of the stated regular quaternion equations of perturbed central motion is presented, showing that the quaternion regularization method, based on the use of Euler parameters or Kustaanheimo–Stiefel variables or their modifications, is unique in joint regularization, linearization and increase in dimension for three-dimensional Keplerian systems and central movement.

In the current investigation, the elastically restrained boundary conditions (ERBC) are proposed to examine the propagation of plane waves at the surface of semi-infinite elastic media. The elastically restrained boundary conditions act as an intermediate link between traction-free and rigid surface conditions.

Examples are a particular condition of the non-existence of solutions and the necessity to verify that the conditions under which the assumption of plane stress is acceptable are satisfied. Therefore, analytical and semi-analytical solutions are advantageous over numerical solutions, even though the former require simplified constitutive equations. A typical approach for deriving analytical and semi-analytical solutions to axisymmetric problems is to assume Tresca’s yield criterion or another yield criterion represented by linear equations in terms of the principal stresses. Such yield criteria are piecewise linear, and the solution to a boundary value problem usually involves several plastic regimes, making it cumbersome. Moreover, using piecewise linear yield criteria may significantly affect predicted strain distributions compared to smooth yield criteria, which are more accurate for most metals. The present paper provides a general axisymmetric elastic perfectly plastic solution for an arbitrary isotropic yield criterion under plane stress conditions. The flow theory of plasticity based on the associated plastic flow rule is used. Obtaining quantitative results requires evaluating ordinary integrals by a numerical method.
