Abstract

The previous chapter outlined some of the major issues in the direct application of the BIE to modeling crack problems. The fact that the BIE ceases to be meaningful for problems with two coplanar crack surfaces forces the use of multiregion or symmetric crack plane models. Both of these procedures require modeling of some surface connecting the crack tip surface(s) with other surfaces. In addition, special interpolation methods are required to achieve good engineering accuracy at reasonable cost.
