Abstract
Modes I, II and III stress intensity factors for a crack of arbitrary planar shape near a bimaterial interface are calculated. The solution utilizes the body-force method and requires Green's functions for perfectly bonded elastic half-spaces. The formulation leads to a system of two-dimensional singular integral equations whose solutions represent the three modes of crack opening displacement. Numerical examples of a semicircular or semielliptical crack terminating at the interface and circular or elliptical cracks contained in one material are given for both internal pressure and farfield tension.
