A new type of finite element is introduced which embodies the inverse square root singularity present near a crack in an elastic medium. Using this element near the tip in two typical cracked configurations, stress intensity factors within 5 per cent of accepted values were obtained with meshes havi

In this paper, analytical and numerical simulations of the crack-tip stresses are presented. Analytical calculations are performed utilizing modified Rice and elastic equations. 2D finite element analyses (FEA) are conducted in parallel using ANSYS. Results from both methods are compared and discuss
The sohttion of crack problems in plane or antiplane elasticity can be reduced to the solution of a singular integral equation along the cracks. In this paper the Rada~hebyshev method of numerical integration and soiution of singular integral equations is modified, through a variable transformation,
