Symbolic computations for the approximate solution of singular integral equations: application to a crack problem

We propose the application of symbolic SAN (semi-analytical–numerical) computations to the numerical solution of SIEs (singular integral equations), which are the BIEs (boundary integral equations) for crack problems in plane and antiplane, isotropic and anisotropic elasticity. The case of a periodi...

Περίληψη:We propose the application of symbolic SAN (semi-analytical–numerical) computations to the numerical solution of SIEs (singular integral equations), which are the BIEs (boundary integral equations) for crack problems in plane and antiplane, isotropic and anisotropic elasticity. The case of a periodic array of collinear cracks (with a variable distance of the cracks) together with the modified Gauss–Chebyshev method (also based on the natural interpolation/extrapolation formula) for the numerical solution of SIEs are used for the illustration of the proposed approach. The obtained SAN results are seen to be very good approximations of the analytical exact results even for a very small number of nodes in the modified Gauss–Chebyshev method. The computer algebra system Derive has been used for the derivation of the present SAN results.
