Abstract

Approximate analytical solution for crack interacting with a gas-filled void is developed on the basis of Eshelby equivalent inclusion theory and transformation toughening theory. As validated by detailed finite element analysis the approximate solution has good accuracy for prediction of mode I, mode II and I/II mixed mode crack-tip stress intensity factors under plane strain loading conditions.
