Abstract
We propose a new approach to the solution of dynamic problems of the theory of elasticity and fracture mechanics based on the application of the finite-difference method only with respect to time. In this case, the equations of motion are split into homogeneous and inhomogeneous systems of differential equations for the determination of displacements at time nodes. For trivial initial conditions, only the homogeneous system of differential equations is preserved (of the same type as in the dynamic problem in Laplace transforms). Its efficient solution can be obtained by the methods of boundary integral equations or boundary elements.
