This numerical Green's function (NGF) is implemented into alternative boundary element computer programs, as the fundamental solution, to enhance the scope of alternative applications of the NGF procedure.
The results to some typical linear fracture mechanics problems are presented.}, DOI = {10.3970/cmes.2000.001.433} }
