Abstract
The dynamic stress intensity factor for a stationary semi-infinite crack in an elastic plane due to the rectilinear motion of a screw dislocation is obtained analytically. The intensity factor is studied for its dependence on the (initial) dislocation position, orientation and speed. The speed is subsonic and possibly non-uniform. The position and orientation are arbitrary, so that crack-dislocation intersection is considered. It is assumed that a dislocation traveling toward the crack surface arrests upon arrival. It is found that, in general, dislocation motion initiation and arrest cause discontinuities in the intensity factor. In the latter instance, the factor takes on a constant value and, in the case of arrest on the crack surface, this value depends only on the initial dislocation position.
