| Abstract: | We study a symmetric problem of harmonic wave propagation in an elastic space with a one-periodic array of interacting disk-shaped cracks. Using the Green function obtained by the Fourier transform, we reduce the problem to a boundary integral equation (BIE) for the function characterizing the displacement discontinuity on one of the cracks and numerically determine the desired function by solving the BIE. We present graphs of the dynamic stress intensity factors near a circular crack versus the wave number for various distances between the defects. |
