Abstract
This chapter is concerned with the introduction of the basic integral equations for two-dimensional elastic linear material problems. It starts by briefly reviewing the partial differential equations for linear elastic material and introducing the necessary notations involved in the formulation. These governing equations are also extended to deal with problems in which initial stress and strain type loads are applied. Such kind of loads are not only important to take into account temperature or other similar loads, but also to model nonlinear material behaviour when used in conjunction with a well established successive elastic solution technique.
