✦ Synopsis

The solution of the scaled boundary ®nite-element equation in displacement with body loads is derived. The non-homogeneous term caused by the body loads is processed using the technique of variation of parameters. Integrals in the radial direction arise which can, however, be evaluated explicitly for concentrated loads and loads varying as power functions in the radial coordinate. In these cases no additional approximations are introduced. The scaled boundary ®nite-element method thus remains a semi-analytical fundamentalsolution-less boundary-element method based on ®nite elements.

In this boundary-element method based on ®nite elements only the boundary is discretized with surface ®nite elements yielding a reduction of the spatial dimension by one. No fundamental solution is necessary and thus no singular integrals must be evaluated and general anisotropic material can be ana

## Abstract The scaled boundary finite‐element method is a novel semi‐analytical technique, combining the advantages of the finite element and the boundary element methods with unique properties of its own. The method works by weakening the governing differential equations in one co‐ordinate direct

## Abstract This study presents a novel application of the scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) to model dynamic crack propagation problems. Accurate dynamic stress intensity factors are extracted directly from the semi‐analytical solutions of SBFEM. They are then used in the dynamic fract
