The Green's function for potential theory
is developed for an axisymmetric void
of arbitrary shape located between two parallel walls.
Numerical results are given to demonstrate the
accuracy in the Green's function formulation
by comparison with numerical solutions
obtained using…

The Green's functions for the line force and dislocation that satisfy the traction
free boundary condition on the surfaces of arbitrary multiple straight cracks in the
isotropic solids are obtained. We develop the hybrid Green's functions combining
the analytical and…

This paper presents a technique to establish the strain incremental formulation in the boundary element method applied to elastoplasticity problem. In this technique, the application of second order singularity problem is avoided, and only first order singularity problem is sufficient.…

Assuming linear displacements and constant strains and stresses at infinity, we re-formulate the equations of the direct boundary element method for plane problems of elasticity. We consider a body made of orthotropic material. The reformulated equations make it possible to…

In this paper, a problem involving time-dependent water flow in a homogeneous soil is considered. The problem involves water infiltration from periodic identical trapezoidal channels. A governing equation of the problem is the Richard’s equation, which can be studied more…
