Abstract
Application of the finite element method to the problem involving a superficial crack in a hexcan of a fast breeder reactor is discussed. The aim is to calculate the stress intensity factor of the hexcan with a through crack in the static and dynamic case, loaded with internal pressure. In the dynamic fracture the crack is considered both fixed and propagating. The structure is discretized with shell elements of 6 and 8 nodes available in the ADINA Code.
