The dual boundary element method: Effective implementation for crack problems
TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional dual boundary element method for linear elastic crack problems is presented. But the authors focus on the effective numerical implementation of the method, and they do not address the problem of collocation at crack tips, crack kinks and crack-edge corners.

Two‐dimensional stress intensity factor computations using the boundary element method
TL;DR: In this article, a multidomain boundary element formulation for the analysis of general two-dimensional plane strain/stress crack problems is presented, and the analyses were performed using traction singular quater-point boundary elements on each side of the crack tip(s) with and without transition elements.

Dual boundary element method for three-dimensional fracture mechanics analysis
Y. Mi,M.H. Aliabadi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an effective numerical implementation of the three-dimensional dual boundary element method, for linear elastic crack problems, is presented, where displacement and traction integral equations are used independently on crack surfaces to overcome the numerical difficulties associated with co-planar crack surfaces in boundary element analysis.
