Abstract

In this work Gaussian approximating functions proposed in the works of V. Maz'ya are used for the solution of the integral equations of elasto-plasticity for isotropic bodies. The use of this functions esentially simplify the calculation of the elements of the final matrix of the linear algebraic equations of the discretized problem. The elements of this matrix turn to be a combination of simple elementary functions. The method is applied to a 2D rectangular body that has a cut on a border and is subjected to axial tension. The convergence of the method is studied on this example.
