International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

A three-dimensional problem on the contact interaction between the faces of a rectangular crack under a normally incident harmonic tension–compression wave is considered. The problem is solved by using the method of boundary integral equations and an iterative algorithm. The contact forces and the discontinuity in the displacement of the crack faces are studied. The results obtained are compared with those for a finite plane crack.
