โœฆ Synopsis

Propagation of curved cracks under general remote loads and boundary conditions is an important aspect of fracture mechanics and structural geology. Nonuniform remote stress and mechanical interaction with nearby cracks or free surfaces can cause cracks to propagate along curved paths [1][2][3][4][5]. This report summarizes a useful but little known numerical method for calculating mixed-mode stress intensity factors for cracks of arbitrary two-dimensional geometry.

In this paper, the numerical solution of the hypersingular integral equation using the body force method in cucved crack problems is presented. In the body force method, the stress fields induced by two kinds of standard set of force doublets are used as fundamental solutions. Then, the problem is f

A simple interference method has been used to measure the opening displacement of cracks in glass plates under eccentric tension load. The results have been compared with analytical predictions from the boundary collocation method and the Westergaard analysis. Since the crack opening displacement is
