Abstract
Abstract This article deals with the interactions between a central crack and a pair of outer cracks situated at the interface of an orthotropic elastic half-plane bonded to a dissimilar orthotropic layer with a punch. The problem is reduced to the solution of three simultaneous singular integral equations that are finally solved using Jacobi polynomials. The phenomena of crack shielding and crack amplification have been depicted through graphs for different particular cases.
