Abstract

The plane strain problem of determining strain energy release rate and crack energy for an interfacial moving Griffith crack situated at the interface of two bonded dissimilar orthotropic half-planes is considered. The problem is reduced to solution of a pair of simultaneous singular integral equations which are finally solved by using Jacobi polynomials. Expressions for strain energy release rate and crack energy are obtained for some particular cases and the results are presented graphically.
