Abstract

Solutions in crack theory can be defined directly by opening displacement v =v (x) and u =u (x) for the first and the second mode, respectively. In this case, the boundary conditions are expressed by singular integrals of the second order.

Aiming to solve numerically the problems, we apply the finite-part definition for the singular integrals and the discretization procedure.
