Abstract A novel non-hypersingular time-domain traction BEM is presented for three-dimensional (3-D) transient elastodynamic crack analysis. The initial-boundary value problem is formulated as a set of non-hypersingular time-domain traction boundary integral equations (BIEs). To solve the time-domain traction BIEs, a time-stepping scheme based on the convolution quadrature formula of Lubich (1988a,b; 1994) for temporal discretization and a collocation method for spatial discretization is adopted. Numerical examples are given for an unbounded solid with a penny-shaped crack under a tensile and shear impact loading. A comparison of the present time-domain BEM with the conventional one shows that the novel time-domain method is… More >
