This communication studies a procedure for stress intensity factor computations using traction singular quarter-point boundary elements. Opening mode stress intensity factors are computed from the tractions' nodal values at the crack tip. A comparison is made between the factors calculated using thi

## Abstract This paper presents a boundary element method (BEM) procedure for a linear elastic fracture mechanics analysis in twoβdimensional anisotropic bimaterials. In this formulation, a displacement integral equation is only collocated on the uncracked boundary, and a traction integral equation
## SUM MARY A time domain boundary-only element method is used for the analysis of fractured planar bodies, subjected to thermal shock type loads. The uncoupled quasistatic thermoelasticity equations are solved without the need for domain discretization. The singular behaviour of the temperature a
