• Resumen

  • The paper systematically investigates the plane elasticity problems of two-dimensional quasicrystals with noncrystal rotational symmetry. First, applying their independent elastic constants, the equilibrium differential equations of the problems in terms of displacements are derived and it is found that the plane elasticity of pentagonal quasicrystals is the same as that of decagonal. Then by introducing displacement functions, huge numbers of complicated partial differential equations of the problems are simplified to a single or a pair of partial differential equations of higher order, which is called governing equations, such that the problems can be easily solved. Finally, some solving methods of these governing equations obtained are introduced briefly.
