**v7.03.103** HPLV103 - Calculation of KI and 3D thermo-elastic G for a circular crack
=============================================================================================

**Summary**

It is a test of fracture mechanics in thermo-mechanics for a three-dimensional problem. We consider a circular crack immersed in a thermoelastic medium. A uniform temperature is imposed on the lips of the crack. This test makes it possible to calculate the energy release rate :math:`G` and the stress intensity factor :math:`{K}_{I}` at various points at the bottom of the crack.

The advantage of the test is the invariance of :math:`G` and :math:`{K}_{I}` according to different crowns and the comparison to an analytical solution.
