Semianalytic finite-element method in continuum creep fracture mechanics problems for complex-shaped spatial bodies and related systems. Part 1. Resolving relationships of the semianalytic finite-element method and algorithms for solving the continuum creep fracture problems

The paper presents physical equations of continuum creep fracture mechanics. Resolving relationships have been derived for a heterogeneous circular nonclosed finite element. The authors have constructed algorithms for solving the creep problem by using Kachanov-Rabotnov scalar parameter of damageability and modeling the conditions of interaction in systems with spatial bodies.
