Hi nguyen,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I am working on your matlab source.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;why you use crack angle (alpha) for calculating jacobian of drdx in branch.m.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Later, you use gauss point angle (tetha) to calculate drdx in j-integ?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Another problem,is not related to your matlab source, do you know how could I calculate dynamic J-Integ, because there are terms which are related to velocity of auxiliary displacement and strain.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
thanks for your time,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Damoon

 <title>Hi Stephano,


 Sorry for</title>

Hi Stephano,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Sorry for very late reply however I did not notice your post.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I agree that the third and fourth functions are different from the one of another authors. However I did not find big differences between them.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Concerning the derivatives, I used bad names for the variables. Using the chain rule, we write, f(r,theta)
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
dfdx =&amp;nbsp; dfdx1 * dx1dx + dfdx2 * dx2dx
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
dfdy =&amp;nbsp; dfdx1 * dx1dy + dfdx2 * dx2dy
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;What you see in my code, dfdr is in fact dfdx1 and calculated in advance by hand as&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
dfdx1 = dfdr * drdx1 + dfdt * dtdx1&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I just posted the corrected code with renamed variables.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Hope that it was a bit of help.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Phu&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
