The ferromagnetic-phase stability limit and magnetization of a quenched bond-mixed spin-1/2 transverse Ising model in an anisotropic simple square lattice are studied within the framework of an effective-field theory considering both competing and noncompeting interactions. In the bond-disordered case, where bonds
J1 and
J2 occur with probabilities 1-p and p, respectively, critical curves are obtained for various \ensuremath{\alpha}'s (\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\equiv}
J1/
J2), and the critical bond concentrations
pc at which the ferromagnetic phase breaks down are determined. As \ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0, the mixed model reduces to the diluted Ising model and the results obtained are compared to those available in the literature. The effect of the transverse field (for different \ensuremath{\alpha}'s) in the thermal behavior of the magnetization as a function of the concentration is also discussed.
Using the ferromagnetic stability condition, the phase diagram is investigated in a quenched bond-mixed Ising ferromagnet with a transverse field
Ω on the square lattice. The fact that large families of critical lines for negative-bond mixture meet at a single point on the line of T =0 is found to be closely related with frustrations due to negative bond. However the effect of frustrations may be observed only for a small value of
Ω on the relevant physical properties.
