Abstract
A convenient calculation method is proposed for the stress intensity factor (SIF) in cracked functionally graded material (FGM) structures. In this method, the complex computational problem for SIFs in cracked FGM plate and cylinder can be simplified as the calculation problem of empirical formulas of SIFs in cracked homogenous plate and cylinder with same loading conditions and the calculation problem of related transition parameters. The results show that the SIF in cracked FGM structure can be obtained accurately without using matrix and integral. The validity and usefulness of the present method are proved by comparing with the results of the conventional method.
