Abstract
The effect of a viscoelastic substrate on an anisotropic elastic cracked body under in-plane concentrated loading is studied in this paper. Based on the correspondence principle, the viscoelastic solution is directly obtained from the corresponding elastic one. The fundamental elastic solution is solved as three complex potentials via the property of analytical continuation to satisfy the continuity condition along the interface between dissimilar media. A singular integral technique in association with the dual coordinate transformation is applied to obtain the stress intensity factors for various crack orientations. Using the standard solid model to formulate the viscoelastic constitutive equation, some numerical examples are considered to demonstrate the use of the present approach.
