An integral equation representation of cracks was presented which differs from well-known "dislocation layer" representation. In this new representation, the equations are written in terms of the displacement discontinuity across the crack surfaces rather than derivatives of the displacement-discontinuity. It was shown in that the new technique is well-suited to the treatment of kinked cracks. In the present paper, this integral equation representation is coupled to the direct boundary-element method for the treatment of finite bodies containing kinked cracks. The method is demonstrated for two-dimensional finite domains but extension to three-dimensional problems would appear to be possible. The resulting approach is shown to be simple, yet very accurate. accurate.
