Abstract

We develop a method for the solution of two-dimensional dynamic problems of the theory of elasticity for infinite bodies with smooth curvilinear cracks combining a modified method of finite differences in time with the method of singular integrodifferential equations in the space variables. Integral representations of the wave potentials are constructed and used to reduce the first boundary-value problem to the solution of systems of integrodifferential equations by the method of mechanical quadratures. The time dependences of the computed dynamic stress intensity factors at the tips of a rectilinear crack are analyzed for various impact and pulsed loads acting upon the crack lips.
