Numerical Treatment of Hypersingular Integral Equations with Application to Crack Mechanics

In this paper we present a treatment of hypersingular integrals and integral equations. It is shown the equivalence of different definitions of hypersingular integrals. Then we construct explicit analytical solution to a characteristic equation and prove convergence of the collocation method to this solution. Further, we expand these results to full hypersingular kernels, and give a demonstration of the developed method to some problems of crack mechanics including crack problem for porous elastic materials, in the framework of Cowin-Nunziato model.

On stress analysis for cracks in elastic materials with voids

The paper deals with classical problem for cracks dislocated in a certain very specific porous elastic material, described by a Cowin-Nunziato model. We propose a method based upon a reducing of stress concentration problem for cracks to some integral equations. By applying Fourier integral transforms the problem is reduced to some integral equations. For the plane-strain problem we operate with a direct numerical treatment of a hypersingular integral equation. In the axially symmetric case, for the penny-shaped crack, the problem is reduced to a regular Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. In the both cases we study stress-concentration factor, and investigate its behavior versus porosity of the material. More in particular the stress concentration factor in the medium with voids is always higher, under the same conditions, than in the classical elastic medium made of material of the skeleton. Further, as can be seen, the influence of the porosity becomes more significant for larger cracks; that is also quite natural from a physical point of view.

On direct numerical treatment of hypersingular integral equations arising in mechanics and acoustics

In this paper we present a treatment of hypersingular integral equations, which have relevant applications in many problems of wave dynamics, elasticity and fluid mechanics with mixed boundary conditions. The main goal of the present work is the development of an efficient direct numerical collocation method. The paper is completed with two examples taken from crack theory and acoustics: the study of a single crack in a linear isotropic elastic medium, and diffraction of a plane acoustic wave by a thin rigid screen.
