A shrink-fit problem between an eccentric and a solid of hollow shaft annulus

Abstract

The paper presents an analytical solution of a shrink-fit problem between an eccentric and a centric circular annulus in the elastic domain. It is assumed that the material constants for both elements are the same and that a plane stress or plane strain state occurs in both annuli. The problem is solved using complex variable functions, where conformal mapping of the centric circular annulus to the eccentric one can be used. Elements of the stress tensor and displacement vector in both annuli are written in closed and finite form.
