Abstract

The problem of shape perturbation for the variational inequality describing solids with cracks under the nonpenetration condition is considered. There are used the iteration-penalty and finite-element methods to calculate numerically an approximate solution of the variational inequality. From the shape sensitivity analysis we deduce energetic characteristics of a solution in the general form. Applying analytical formulas, we describe the quasistatic propagation of a crack under the linear loading applied. The numerical example is presented, when a penetration between the crack faces occur.
