Two types of boundary elements, accounting for singularities, are considered: (i) edge elements, which adjoin a singular line, and (ii) intermediate elements, which while not adjoining the line, are still under strong influence of the singularity. An efficient method to evaluate the influence coefficients and the field intensity factors is suggested for the both types of the elements. The method avoids time expensive numerical evaluation of singular and hypersingular integrals over the element surface by reduction to 1D integrals. The method being general, its details are explained by considering a representative examples for elasticity problems for a piece-wise homogeneous medium with cracks, inclusions and pores. Numerical examples for plane elements illustrate the exposition. The method can be extended for curvilinear elements.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={On evaluation of influence coefficients for edge and intermediate boundary elements in 3D problems involving strong field concentrations}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/109459/PDF/08_069-076_00811_Bpast.No.67-1_06.02.20.pdf}, doi={10.24425/bpas.2019.125435}, keywords={boundary integral equation, boundary element method, singular element, Hadamard finite part integral}, }
