Implementation of Nisitani's Body Force Method for the Solution of Notch Problems (Application de la Methode des Forces de Nisitani pour Resoudre des Problemes d'Entailles et de Fissures).

Abstract

An outline of Nisitani's body force method is presented and details of the numerical implementation provided. Full details are provided for the solution of several problems including single cracks or single elliptical notches in semi-infinite plates as well as the problem of an embedded crack near a semi-elliptical notch in a semi-infinite plate.
