Abstract: Highly accurate Weight Functions (WFs) for the radial crack(s) at a circular hole are derived by using the Wu-Carlsson analytical Weight Function Method (WFM). Accuracy of the WFs proposed is verified and validated point-by-point by using Green's Functions (GFs) of Shivakumar-Forman and Newman, and also the Weight function Complex Taylor Series Expansion (WCTSE) method. It is shown that the WFs proposed are not only highly accurate, but also, as a continuous function for crack length, enable determination of key mechanical parameters of cracks of any length (a/R ≤ 2) under arbitrary loadings with high efficiency and accuracy. A unified approach is adopted for the derivations and expressions of WFs for single/double hole-edge crack(s). The analytical WFs proposed are also used to calculate stress intensity factors for various load cases including wedge-splitting forces at the crack mouth, crack face power stresses, and residual stress fields induced by cold-working of the circular hole.

Key words: crack at edge of circular hole, weight function method, Green's function, stress intensity factor, crack opening displacement
