Analysis of crack growth problems using the object-oriented program bemcracker2D

This paper presents an application of the boundary element method to the analysis of crack growth problems in linear elastic fracture mechanics and the correlation of results with experimental data. The methodology consists of computing stress intensity factors (SIFs), the crack growth path and the...
