Abstract

An assumed hybrid-stress finite element model together with a new super singular wedge-tip element with numerical eigensolutions is developed to study the bimaterial wedge/notch problems. The establishment of the super wedge-tip element consists of (1) a finite element method-based eigenanalysis is developed and applied to determine the order of the stress singularity and the angular dependences of the stress and displacement fields, (2) these fields are subsequently used to develop a finite element surrounding the wedge tip. To demonstrate the validity of the method, three types of the bimaterial wedge problems are examined and compared with analytical/referenced solutions. The high accuracy and general applicability of the present technique are shown.
