Abstract

This paper considers cracks of a fixed size and shape which exist in an unbounded linear elastic body. The crack faces are assumed to suffer a sudden disturbance, which results in a shock wave emanating from the region of the crack into the body. The geometry and physics are assumed such as to give rise to problems governed by the equations of two-dimensional elastodynamics.
