β¦ Synopsis
Ahatraet-The plane elastic problem for a curved crack problem is studied by means of the hypersingular integral equation approach. Based on the solution of a doublet of dislocation, the hypersingular integral equation for the curved crack problem is formulated. The unknown function invalved is the crack opening displacement. Some hypersingular integrals along a curve are defined and several particular hypersingular integrals are quadratured in a closed form. After the crack opening displacement function is approximated by a weight function multiplied by a polynomial, the hypersingular integral in the equation can be evaluated in a closed form and the regular integral can be integrated numerically. Finally, the solution is obtainable. Numerical examples with tlte calculated stress intensity factors are given.

A new integral equation is proposed in this paper to investigate the problems of branch cracks with arbitrary configuration in plane elasticity. In the new integral equation, the unknown functions are the usual dislocation functions, and the right hand terms of the integral equations represent the r
