Abstract

The two-dimensional ‘in-plane’ time-harmonic elasto-dynamic problem for anisotropic cracked solid is studied. The non-hypersingular traction boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is used in conjunction with closed form frequency dependent fundamental solution, obtained by Radon transform. Accuracy and convergence of the numerical solution for stress intensity factor (SIF) is studied by comparison with existing solutions in isotropic, transversely-isotropic and orthotropic cases. In addition a parametric study for the wave field sensitivity on wave, crack and anisotropic material parameters is presented.
