β¦ Synopsis
The weight function method is applied to solving three-dimensional linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) problems. Within the framework of the present approach the fundamental equations of LEFM are satisfied and the minimum of additional assumptions are used.
The crack opening displacement field and stress intensity factors for a semi-elliptical surface crack in the nonuniform stress fields are obtained. Comparison of the calculated results with the numerical data from the literature confirms the efficiency of the proposed method for the solution of three-dimensional crack problems.

A simple method is described which allows the estimation of local stress intensity factors of two-dimensional cracks by use of the weight function basic relation. The method is applied especially to semi-elliptical surface cracks. Two examples are considered. The half-penny shaped crack under bendin
