Revisiting classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics - Part I: The closing ‘mathematical’ crack in an infinite plate and the respective Stress Intensity Factors

Christos Markides, Stavros K Kourkoulis

This is the first part of a short three-paper series, aiming to revisit some classical concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics. The motive of this first paper is to highlight some controversial issues, related to the unnatural…

Certain issues in the analytical integration of the Boussinesq problem

Mykola Nagirniak, Marek Chalecki

The Boussinesq solution, one of the fundamental problems in the theory of elasticity, enables an analysis of stresses and strains (displacements) in a semi-elastic space subject to surface loads. This solution has a form of formulas for…
