Abstract:
      In this paper,started rigorously from Green functions for elastic spac e problems of transversely isotropic materials,the fundamental solutions for a displacement-jump (dislocation) were derived by Hadamard’s finite-part integr a l concepts.Subsequently,the problem of a three-dimensional planar crack with a r bitrary shape in an infinite transversely isotropic solid was reduced to the sol ution of a set of hyper-singular integral equations with unknown displacement j umps.Discretization of the boundary element method on the crack surfaces was dis cussed.The hyper-singular integrals in the equations were numerically treated b y the use of Hadamard’s finite-part integral concepts.Finally,some numerical ex amples of typical-shaped planar crack problems were given and the effeetiveness of the analysis was validated.
