Abstract
A method of constructing a three-dimensional weight function using a v ariational formula for an elastic body with a crack and the theory of harmonic functions is described. Unlike earlier results [1, 2], with t his method it is possible to take into account the variable curvature of the crack contour. The example of a plane embedded elliptical crack is given.
