| contents | In this paper we present a new boundary integral equation formulation for the solution of the elastostatic traction boundary value problem in two and three dimensions. The approach relies on the introduction of new layer potentials, called string kernels, which are based on modifications of the Boussinesq-Cerruti family of half-space solutions. We prove that the resulting integral equations are second-kind integral equations, and show that they are well-behaved in the incompressible limit. We illustrate the performance of the method with several numerical examples. |
