In this paper, the erect of notch geometries on dynamic stress concentration was investigated by using the dynamic photoelasticity and the drop weight loading system Dynamic stress fields arisen by elastic wave through the loading system around various types of notch geometries were captured by using $10^6/sec$ frame rate Cranz-Shardin camera system with 12 photographic frames. We found that dynamic stress concentrations around the notch tip and comer were highly dependent on the change in notch geometries. The elders of dynamic stress singularity ware determined with respect to varying geometries of notches and we explained dynamic stress concentration in terms of the orders of dynamic stress singularity.

In this paper, an Extended Finite Element Method is proposed by adding discontinuity and singularity enrichment functions to the standard FEM approximation. In this method, the singularity and the discontinuity of the crack are efficiently modeled by using initial regular mesh without refining mesh near the crack tip, so that it enables express the asymptotic stress field near crack tip and crack surface successfully. The developed method was verified by evaluating crack tip stress profile and stress intensity factor of mode Ⅰ/mode Ⅱ fracture problems and the results showed the effectiveness and robustness for fracture problem.

This paper deals with the stress singularity induced at the interface corner between the viscoelastic thin film and the rigid substrate subjected to the combined influence of temperature change and moisture absorption. A boundary element analysis is employed to investigate the behavior of interface stresses. The film is assumed to be thermorheologically simple. It is further assumed that moisture effects are analogous to thermal effects. Numerical results are presented for a given viscoelastic model, indicating the singular residual stresses induced during cooling down from the curing temperature, and how they can be altered by subsequent moisture absorption at room temperature.

Interfacial stress singularity induced in an analysis model consisting of the polymeric thin film and the elastic substrate has been investigated using the boundary element method. The interfacial singular stresses between the viscoelastic thin film and the elastic substrate subjected to a uniform moisture ingression are investigated for the case of a small interfacial edge crack. It is assumed that moisture effects are assumed to be analogous to thermal effects. Then, the overall stress intensity factor for the case of a small interfacial edge crack is computed. The numerical procedure does not permit calculation of the limiting case for which the edge crack length vanishes.

In [8] they introduced a new finite element method for accurate numerical solutions of Poisson equations with corner singularities. They consider the Poisson equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition with one corner singularity at the origin, and compute the finite element solution using standard FEM and use the extraction formula to compute the stress intensity factor, then pose a PDE with a regular solution by imposing the nonhomogeneous boundary condition using the computed stress intensity factor, which converges with optimal speed. From the solution they could get an accurate solution just by adding the singular part. This approach uses the polar coordinate and the cut-off function to control the singularity and the boundary condition. In this paper we consider Poisson equations with multiple singular points, which involves different cut-off functions which might overlaps together and shows the way of cording in FreeFEM++ to control the singular functions and cut-off functions with numerical experiments.

Stress wave propagations in an elastic half space to a normal point force of ramp type in time are analyzed. The governing equations are transformed by applying the Laplace and Hankel transforms with respect to time and radial distance. The inversion of Laplace transforms are performed by employing the Cagniard-de Hoop method, where the Rayleigh waves at surface are obtained by including the residue terms. The stress waves computed at the location very cose to the surface are shown to be almost identical to the surface waves obtained by the residue method except the Rayleigh wavefront. It is found that at the surface, the stresses are dominated by the Rayleigh waves, whose amplitudes increase linearly with time when time is very large. It is also found that in the interior part, the radial stress has a logarithmic singularity at the shear wavefront, while tangential stress shows no singularity.

Abdi's numerical method(ref.13) for representing a stress singularity by shifting the mid-side nodes of isoparametric elements is reviewed. A simple technique to obtain the optimal position of the mid-side nodes in quadratic isoparametric finite element is presented. From this technique we can directly obtain the position of the side-nodes adjacent to the crack tip. It is also observed that the present technique provides good accuracy for the expression of the opening displacement and the determination of the mid-side nodes for more wide range of material properties than that obtained by Abdicant the finite element method is applied to determine stress intensity factors for pressurized crack perpendicular to and terminating at the interface of two bonded dissimilar materials. A proper definition for stress intensity factors of a crack perpendicular to bimaterial interface is provided. It is based upon a near-tip displacement solutions on the crack surface for interface crack between two dissimilar materials. Numerical testing is carried out with the eight-node and six-node elements. The results obtained are compared with the previous solutions.

When a crack meets bimaterial interface stress singularity depends on the elastic constants of the adjacent materials. In the present study we are going to describe the finite element formulation for problems with a crack to be embedded in the stiffer material$({\mu}_2/{\mu}_1)$. The cubic isoparametric singular element, represented by adequately shifting the mid-side nodes adjacent to the crack tip is constructed to enclose the crack tip. An alternative method to obtain the optimal position of the mid-side nodes of cubic isoparametric elements is presented. In addition, a proper definition for the stress intensity factors of a crack normal to bimaterial interface is provided. It is based upon near a tip displacement solutions. Models for numerical analysis are two dimensional elastic bodies with a through crack under plain strain. The results obtained are compared with the previous solutions.

The solution of the interface problem or Poisson problem with concave corner has singular perturbation at the interface corners or singular corners. The decoupled dual singular function method (DDSFM) which exploits the singular representations of the solutions was suggested in [3, 9] and estimated optimal accuracy in [10]. The convergence rates consist with theoretical results even for the problems with very strong singularity, with the efficiency depending on parameters used in the methods. Furthermore the errors in $L^2$ and $L^\infty$-spaces display some oscillation, in the cases with meshsize not small enough. In this paper, we present an answer to remove the oscillation via numerical experiments. We observe the effects of parameters in DDSFM, and show the consisting efficiency of the method over the strong singularity.

Numerical method by Abdi et al. for obtaining a stress singularity near a crack perpendicular to the interface between two elastic materials is reviewed. More efficient and simple method to obtain crack singularity by shifting a mid-side node of 8-node isoparametric element is presented. It is observed that the present analysis provides increased accuracy for the expression of the opening displacement and the determination of the optimal position of the mid-side node for a wide range of material properties.
