This Note is devoted to the theoretical study of the elastostatic fields at a vertex notch under general far-field loading conditions. The analysis is based on the finite plane deformation hyperelasticity theory for an incompressible Mooney-Rivlin material. We approach the solution, near the singularity, by a mixed asymptotic development. We show that the shape of the solution depends on the opening angle of the notch and that there is singularity if the notch is concave. Furthermore, we show that a pure loading mode II gives rise to the opening of the notch vertex in contrast to the linear elasticity. To cite this article: M.

In this paper, we are concerned with the mathematical and numerical analysis of convergence and stability of the mixed formulation for incompressible elasticity in cracked domains. The objective is to extend the extended finite element method (X-FEM) cut-off analysis done in the case of compressible elasticity to the incompressible one. A mathematical proof of the inf-sup condition of the discrete mixed formulation with X-FEM is established for some enriched fields. We also give a mathematical result of quasi-optimal error estimate. Finally, we validate these results with numerical tests.
