Abstract

The problem of contact interaction of the opposite faces of a linear crack under a normally incident harmonic tension-compression wave is numerically solved by the Galerkin method with piecewise-linear continuous elements. The dependence of the stress intensity factor (opening mode) on the wave number is investigated.
