These methods are classified as numerical-analytical (sometimes – referred to as semi-analytical) methods and represent simple numerical approaches to solving integral equations with a kernel whose characteristic part is expressed as a discontinuous integral of the Weber-Schafheitlin type. Such problems arise in contact problems, problems involving cracks, inclusions, overlays, stringers, and other thin amplifiers in semi-bounded domains such as a half-space, layer, or a multilayered half-space. The first method is a mechanical quadrature method based on a quadrature formula for calculating an integral with the above-mentioned kernel in the presence of a square-root singularity of the solution. The second method is a direct collocation method. Both methods reduce the problem to a certain SLAE. The stability of the methods is analyzed by applying them to a simple problem of the described type, for various combinations of physical and geometric parameters, and a comparative analysis is given.</p>","PeriodicalId":697,"journal":{"name":"Mechanics of Solids","volume":"61 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149132487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dynamics of a cyclic machine are studied using a piston compressor as an example. Centroids of the noncircular gears are constructed based on the law of motion, and the rotational irregularity is studied taking into account the inclusion of the developed gears in the machine design. The resulting method reduces rotational irregularity to δ = 0.11, while the mass of the moving machine links is reduced by 56% compared to a traditional flywheel installation.

The strain energy is a quadratic form depending on the asymmetric strain and wryness tensors. For the purposes of this study, the A-representation of the strain energy of the hemitropic micropolar elastic medium, characterized by 9 mechanical moduli, is the most convenient. The quadratic form of the strain energy is diagonalized by the method of successive two-dimensional Jacobi rotations. Uncoupled two-dimensional rotations can be represented as a single multidimensional rotation by their composition. Only 5 distinct rotations are sufficient to diagonalize the quadratic-form matrix. As a result of application of the Jacobi method, a diagonal matrix similar to the matrix of the quadratic energy form has been obtained. Moreover, the eigenvalues are situated on the principal diagonal. The composition of 5 indicated rotations, defined as similarity transformations, determines the transition to new canonical variables. The canonical form of the strain energy makes it possible to formulate the equilibrium stability criteria for a hemitropic micropolar elastic solid in an explicit and particularly simple form. Unilateral constraints on the constitutive constants have been obtained, that ensure the positive definiteness of the quadratic form and thereby guarantee the equilibrium stability of the hemitropic micropolar elastic solid.
