Abstract
In the field of fracture mechanics, large-scale problems are solved by many numerical techniques FEM has been one of the most effective methods for the numerical analysis of crack problem. But it has the difficulty that the mesh generation becomes tough work especially for three dimensional crack problems For large-scale problem, meshless method has been developed. And SPH^<[1][2]> (Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics) method is one of meshless method. In this study SPH method is applied to the stable crack problem. Numerical simulation of static solid problem is conducted. The accuracy of this method is discussed by comparing with theoretical ones.
