In this thesis, we have developed a numerical tool, based on a classical boundary elements method, which allows a conventional analysis of a stationary crack in a 3D specimen under complex mechanical loading. In order to assess the impact of the microstructure on the brittle fracture, we were interested in non local models of behavior. First, we have adopted the non local elastic model due to Eringen. This refined constitutive equation allows to account for long range interactions in the description of the elastic behavior in the vicinity of the crack front. Unlike the traditional approach, this type of model leads to a finite stress field at the crack front. Moreover, the stress is locally maximal ahead of the front. These interesting resu...
