Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of finding the stress distribution near a Griffith crack located at the interface of two bonded dissimilar elastic half-spaces. The crack is opened by the interaction of a plane harmonic elastic wave, incident normally on the crack. The problem is first reduced to a set of simultaneous dual integral equations which are further transformed to a set of simultaneous singular integral equations. These are solved numerically by reducing them to a set of algebraic equations. The solution is used to calculate the stress intensity factors.
