Abstract

Under the remote thermal loading, the thermal stress analysis for a hypocycloid-type crack is carried out. Two kinds of thermal conditions are assumed along the hypocycloid-type crack. Among them, one is the thermal insulated condition and the other is the vanishing temperature condition along the crack face. By using the complex variable function method in conjunction with the conformal mapping technique, a closed form solution for stress intensity factors (SIFs) is obtained.
