โฆ Synopsis
An analysis of the rigid body rotation is presented which is based on the conventional Westergaard function and the stress function in complex form. The crack opening displacement is obtained on the basis of rotation at points lying on the crack edge. Using an expression of rotation near the crack tip the rotation at the Dugdale's crack tip plastic zone is shown to be a material constant. With the help of an analysis of rotation for the elastic region, the distribution of rotation in cracked plates having flnite width are obtained.

This paper introduces efficient and accurate algorithms for simulating the rotation of a three-dimensional rigid object and compares them to several prior methods. First, we introduce a second-order-accurate method that incorporates a third-order correction; then we introduce a third-order-accurate
