Shape sensitivity analysis of an elastic solid in equilibrium with a known load system applied over its boundary is presented in this work. The domain and boundary integral expressions of the ยฎrst-and second-order shape derivatives of the total potential energy are established, by using an arbitrary

โฆ Synopsis
The crack propagation problem for linear elastic fracture mechanics has been studied by several authors exploiting its analogy with standard dissipative systems theory (see e.g. (

In this paper the properties of eigenfunction expansion form (abbreviated as EEF) in the crack problems of plane elasticity and antiplane elasticity are discussed in details. After using the Betti's reciprocal theorem to the cracked body, several new path independent integrals are obtained. All the
Ahatr&--The behaviour of cracks in rock due to drag bit cutting is modelled using fracture mechanics principles based on a displacement discontinuity method. A realistic representation of a stress singularity at a crack tip is achieved using a special crack tip element with r In displacement variati
