โฆ Synopsis
A boundary integral equation method for the solution of a class of two-dimensional elasticity problems involving multiple interacting cracks in an elastic material is presented. The method is used to obtain a procedure for the numerical evaluation of the crack tip stress intensity factors for this class of problems. The stress intensity factors for some specific problems are computed using this procedure.

An antiplane multiple crack problem is considered for inhomogeneous isotropic elastic materials. The problem is reduced to a boundary integral equation involving hypersingular integrals. The boundary integral equation may be solved numerically using standard procedures. Some crack problems for a par
A boundary integral equation method for the solution of an important class of crack problems in elasticity is outlined. The method is applicable for deformations in which the crack faces remain in contact. Specific numerical examples are considered to illustrate the application of the method.
