Abstract

This paper deals with the diffraction of SH-waves by a Griffith crack located at the interface of two bonded dissimilar orthotropic half spaces. The mixed boundary value problem has been reduced to the solution of Fredholm integral equation of second kind by applying Fourier and Abel transforms. Stress intensity factor at the tip of the crack has been calculated by solving integral equation using perturbation method for low frequency and plotted against dimensionless frequency.
