Abstract

Using a Fourier integral transform, the problem of a cracked plate, of an arbitrary thickness 2h and subjected to a uniform external load of mode I, is reduced to that of the solution of a two-dimensional singular integral equation.

Résumé

En utilisant une transformation intégrale de Fourier, on réduit le problème d'une plaque fissurée d'une épaisseur arbitraire 2h et soumise à une contrainte extérieure uniforme de mode I, à celui de résoudre une équation intégrale singulière à deux dimensions.
