An alternative approach to arrive at the fundamental solution of the boundary integral equation (BIE) for axisymmetric elastostatic problems with rotational body force is presented. The formulation is implemented in an elastostatic BIE axisymmetric program using isoparametric quadratic elements.
The method is applied to rotating disks of constant or variable thickness and linearly tapered. The results compare very well with avaialable analytical and numerical solutions.
