A New Finite Element Combination Method to Solve the Crack Cylinder of the Saint-Venant's Torsion Problem

Based on the Saint-Venant's problem, combine the Crack3D code and Ansys software, a new finite element combination method to calculate the Saint-Venant's torsion problem including crack is proposed. In order to illustrate its application, the numerical example for a Saint-Venant's torsion problem with crack are given and the numerical results are satisfactory.
