The dual boundary element method coupled with the weight function technique is developed for the analysis of three-dimensional elastostatic fracture mechanics mixed-mode problems. The weight functions used to calculate the stress intensity factors are deΓΏned by the derivatives of traction and displa

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
This paper presents an analysis of mixed mode fracture mechanics problems arising in anisotropic composite laminates. The boundary element method (BEM) and the Jk integral are presented as accurate techniques to compute the stress intensity factors K~ and Kn of two dimensional anisotropic bodies. Us
The weight function method normally applied to fracture mechanics problems is applied to problems without cracks. A procedure is described which allows the stresses in the surrounding of inclusions to be computed. The method is applied to compute stresses near inclusions and phase-transformation zon
This paper is the second of a series of two papers dealing with the determination of the deformability, tensile strength and fracturing of anisotropic rocks by diametral compression (Brazilian test) of discs of rock. It is shown how a new formulation of the Boundary Element Method (BEM), proposed re
