%0 Journal Article %T Iterative method for solving a problem with mixed boundary conditions for biharmonic equation arising in fracture mechanics %A Dang Quang A %A Mai Xuan Thao %J Boletim da Sociedade Paranaense de Matem¨¢tica %D 2013 %I Sociedade Brasileira de Matem¨¢tica %X In this paper we consider a mixed boundary value problem for biharmonic equation of the Airy stress function which models a crack problem of a solid elastic plate. An iterative method for reducing the problem to a sequence of mixed problems for Poisson equations is proposed and investigated. The convergence of the method is established theoretically and illustrated on many numerical experiments. %K Iterative method %K Biharmonic equation %K Mixed boundary conditions %K Crack problem. %U http://www.periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/BSocParanMat/article/view/11728
