A New Integral Equation Approach for the Curved Crack Problem in a Circular Plate

  • Chapter
Advances in Continuum Mechanics

Abstract

Integral equation approaches are an important tool for the solution of crack problems in plane elasticity [1–5]. The description generally used in the mentioned papers is the singular integral equation approach. Recently, alternatives were suggested. In [6,7], taking the tractions and the dislocation function respectively along the crack to be polynomials, the multiple crack problem and the curved crack problem in an infinite plate were solved. The regularization problem of the singular integral equation for the crack problem was considered in [8,9].
