✦ Synopsis


The weight function technique is used to analyse both static and dynamic three-dimensional fracture mechanics problems. The weight functions are first determined, in terms of Laplace transforms, by an indirect boundary element method. The stress intensity factor in the time domain is then obtained by Durbin's inversion method. The dynamic stress intensity factors are calculated for a central square crack in a square bar and a circular or elliptical crack in a cylinder under different types of loads. An extension of the method for arbitrary dynamic loads is developed via a dynamic Green's function approach.

In this paper, a variational technique is described and used to determine the weight functions for three-dimensional dynamic, mixed-mode problems in fracture mechanics. The weight functions required to calculate the stress intensity factors are defined in terms of the derivatives of both traction an

## Abstract The growing activity in the area of Quantum Chemical Topology warrants a new algorithm to delineate topological basins in 3D scalar fields other than the electron density. A method based on the β€œoctal tree search algorithm” of computer graphics is proposed to reach this goal. We illustr
