Analytical influence functions for displacement discontinuity and point force elements |
|
| Authors: | H. C. M. Chan |
| Abstract: | The analytical influence functions for the elements of a hybridized displacement discontinuity and indirect boundary element method to model fracture propagation are presented. The influence functions are exact and in closed form and, thus, have significant advantages over their numerical counterparts. |
