Abstract: As we know, problems with boundary imperfections (notches or cracks) are the more important one in practical fracture analysis. Frequently, these imperfections would appear in the boundaries of the bodies as a randomly distributed group, and under the loading circumstances would grow up to be unstable cracks which induces catastrophic fracture of the bodies. For right evaluation the fracture behavior of the bodies with such boundary imperfections, it demands mathematical solutions for problems with random boundary notches and/or cracks.
