Abstract

The boundary element method (BEM) for three-dimensional dynamic analysis of cracked structures is presented. The solutions are computed in time or frequency domain by using either the Laplace or the Fourier integral transform method. The displacement and the traction boundary integral equations are used in the present approach. The boundary geometry, displacements and tractions are approximated using either constant or quadratic elements. The dynamic stress intensity factors are computed using crack opening displacements. The method is used to analyze the dynamic behaviour of a rectangular bar with an internal square crack and a cracked thick-walled cylinder subjected to internal impact pressure.
