An external crack in a semi-infinite cylinder

K MANTVACHAKAN, A CHAKRABARTI

Abstract


The problem of an external crack in a semi-infinite circular cylinder has been investigated under a special type of loading of the curved boundary of the cylinder. The problem has been solved through the approach of dual senes relations involving Bessel functions and their reduction to a system of Fredholm Integral equations The resulting Fredholm equations have been solved numerically and the results have been presented In the form of graphs for various values of the parameters involved.

Keywords


External crack; stress-intensity factor; dual series relations; Fredholm integral equations.
