Mh. Zhao et al., MOMENT STRESS INTENSITY FACTORS FOR COLLINEAR AND PARALLEL CRACKS IN REISSNERS PLATE - BOUNDARY INTEGRAL-EQUATION APPROACH, Theoretical and applied fracture mechanics, 22(3), 1995, pp. 261-266
Based on Betti's reciprocal theorem, a displacement discontinuity boun
dary integral equation is derived for a Reissner plate with line crack
s. The boundary element method is used to obtain the moment stress int
ensity factors for two collinear and parallel cracks. Displayed graphi
cally are the numerical results for the moment stress intensity factor
s.
