Discrete boundary conditions for elasticity problems with singularities

Discrete boundary conditions on an artificial boundary are obtained for the elasticity problems with singularities. An iteration method is designed to solve the boundary value problem by using the discrete boundary conditions. Some numerical results are given, which demonstrate the effectiveness of the numerical method.
