An influence function for stress intensity factors of bimaterial notched bodies

  • Published:
International Journal of Fracture Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The problem of a notch at a bimaterial interface is considered. An influence function is developed for determining the stress intensity factors for all notch angles in infinite bodies. Particular solutions are obtained for cracks in homogeneous and bimaterial bodies and for bonded strips. Comparison with solutions in the literature is excellent.
