Original Abstract

A description of stress and displacement fields by means of the Williams power series using also higher-order terms is the focus of this paper. Coefficients of this series are determined via the over-deterministic method from the results of conventional finite element (FE) analysis. A study is conducted into the selection of the FE node set whose results are processed in this regression technique. Coefficients up to the twelfth term were determined with high precision. The effect of the position of the FE node set on the accuracy of the values of the higher-order term coefficients is reported.

Keywords

crack, near-crack-tip fields, Williams series, higher-order terms, inelastic zone, quasi-brittle fracture.
