Stress intensity factor for cracks problems in an elastic half plane using singular integral equations

Single and multiple cracks in two dimensional half plane isotropic elastic solid are considered. The cracks are subjected to uniaxial tension s¥ x = p with free traction on the boundary. These problems are formulated into a system of singular integral equations (SIEs) with the distribution dislo...
