Abstract | ||||
The torsion of a long elastic bar possessing a normal cross-section bounded by a nephroid is considered by means of an expansion in polar harmonics, in conjunction with boundary collocation method and the boundary representation of harmonic functions. Three types of nephroids are investigated and comparison is carried out between all three cases in what concerns the e¢ ciency of the used method. The results are illustrated in three-dimensional plots of the unknown functions of practical interest. | ||||
