N2  - Numerical fracture mechanics analysis with the emphasis on the boundary element method (BEM) is subject of this book. An up-to-date account of recent advances in other numerical methods such as the finite element method is also presented. The book contains a compilation of the work of many researchers. Some simple techniques which are essential for understanding the physical principle that govern crack problems in general are also discussed. Different numerical techniques are described in detail and where possible simple examples are presented, as well as test results for more complicated problems.    Partial contents: basic fracture mechanics; the development of fracture mechanics analysis; numerical methods in linear elastic fracture mechanics; boundary element method; application of boundary element methods to fracture mechanics; weight function techniques
