Crack propagation as a free boundary problem.
A sharp interface model of crack propagation as a phase transition process is discussed. We develop a multipole expansion technique to solve this free boundary problem numerically. We obtain steady state solutions with a self-consistently selected propagation velocity and shape of the crack, provided that elastodynamic effects are taken into account. Also, we find a saturation of the steady sta...
متن کاملA free boundary problem arising in flame propagation
We study a free boundary problem describing the propagation of laminar flames. The problem arises as the limit of a singular perturbation problem. We introduce the notion of viscosity solutions for the problem to show the maximum principle-type property of the solutions. Using this property we show the uniform convergence of the approximating solutions and the uniqueness of the viscosity soluti...
متن کاملOn the crack propagation modeling of hydraulic fracturing by a hybridized displacement discontinuity/boundary collocation method
Numerical methods such as boundary element and finite element methods are widely used for the stress analysis in solid mechanics. This study presents boundary element method based on the displacement discontinuity formulation to solve general problems of interaction between hydraulic fracturing and discontinuities. The crack tip element and a higher order boundary displacement collocation techn...
متن کاملA boundary element analysis of crack-propagation mechanism of micro-cracks in rock-like specimens under a uniform normal tension
In this work, the mechanism for fracture of brittle substances such as rocks under a uniform normal tension is considered. The oriented straight micro-cracks are mostly created in all the polycrystalline materials resulting from the stress concentrations. The present work focuses on the interactions of the pre-existing micro-cracks, which can grow and propagate within a rock-like specimen. The ...
متن کاملA two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation
In this paper we study a two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation on a bounded domain $Dsubset mathbb{R}^{n}$ with smooth boundary. We give some results on the growth of solutions and characterize the free boundary points in terms of homogeneous harmonic polynomials using a fundamental result of Caffarelli and Friedman regarding the representation of functions whose ...
