ing partial differential equations PDEs are derived, and the Fourier transform method is introduced and applied to convert the governing PDE into an ordinary differential equation ODE .A fterward, the crack boundary value problem is described, and a specific complete set of boundary conditions is given. The governing hypersingular integrodifferential equation is derived and discretized using the collocation method. Next, various relevant aspects of the numerical discretization are described in detail. Subsequently, numerical results are given, conclusions are inferred, and potential extensions of this work are discussed. One appendix, providing the hierarchy of the PDEs and the corresponding integral equations, supplements the paper.
