Abstract

The finite element method for the dynamic problem of cracked linear viscoelastic solids is developed using the singular element where the displacement function is taken from the analytical solution near the crack-tip. The time variation of the dynamic stress intensity factors is determined for a center crack and an oblique crack in standard linear viscoelastic rectangular plates subjected to dynamic loading.
