β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents a new method for the direct computation of strongly singular integrals existing in the Cauchy principal value sense. It can be usefully applicd in thc solution by the direct boundary element method of many different problems. Initialiy, some considerations are provided in order to summarize the state-ofthe-art on this issue. Then the features of the proposed method arc rcported. The procedure allows the direct cdculation of Cauchy principal value integrals with first-order singularity and it is applicable even in advanced boundary element methods employing high-order dements. It requires only the use of standard Gaussian quadrature formulae plus thc computation of a logarithmic term. Some examples show the effectiveness and efficiency of thc procedure.

A new technique is developed to evaluate the Cauchy principal value integrals and weakly singular integrals involved in the boundary integral equations. The boundary element method is then applied to analyse scattering of waves by cracks in a laminated composite plate. The Green's functions are obta
## Abstract Current methods to deal with Cauchy principalβvalue (CPV) integrals in advanced boundaryβelement implementations have been almost entirely based on indirect approaches (such as the rigidβbody motion in elastostatics). The present paper illustrates an alternative direct approach for the
A direct-type Boundary Element Method (BEM) for the analysis of simply supported and built-in plates is employed. The integral equations due to a combined biharmonic and harmonic governing equations are first established. The boundary integrals developed are then evahated analytically. The domain in
