Singular integral equations arisen in axisymmetric problems of elastostatics are under consideration in this paper. These equations are received after applying the integral transformation and Gauss–Ostrogradsky’s theorem to the Green tensor for equilibrium equations of the infinite isotropic medium. Initially, three-dimensional problems expressed in Cartesian coordinates are transformed to cylindrical ones and integrated with respect to the circumference coordinate. So, the three-dimensional axisymmetric problems are reduced to systems of one-dimensional singular integral equations requiring the evaluation of linear integrals only. The thorough analysis of both displacement and traction kernels is accomplished, and similarity in behavior of both kernels is established. The kernels are expressed in terms of complete elliptic integrals of first and second kinds. The second kind elliptic integrals are nonsingular, and standard Gaussian quadratures are applied for their numerical evaluation. Analysis of external integrals proved the existence of logarithmic and Cauchy’s singularities. The numerical treatment of these integrals takes into account the presence of this integrable singularity. The numerical examples are provided to testify accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method including integrals with logarithmic singularity, Catalan’s constant, the Gaussian surface integral. The comparison between analytical and numerical data has proved high precision and availability of the proposed method.
