摘要：The article deals with the stress-strain state of a three-layer rod under central compression. The results of analytical calculation and numerical calculation (FEM) are compared with experimental data. It is assumed that the interaction of layers is accomplished through a contact layer. The contact layer is considered as a transversally anisotropic elastic medium with such parameters that it can be represented as a set of short elastic rods that are not connected to each other and are normally oriented to the contact surface. Such an assumption allows us to obtain an analytical solution of the problem in a closed form, as well as to avoid infinite tangential stresses at the interface of the layers near the model end. The obtained results of calculations coincide qualitatively and quantitatively with the results of the experiment.
