โฆ Synopsis
In this paper an effective numerical method is presented for analyzing the stress intensity factors associated with the stress field near a partially debonded interface in a finite bi-material plate. The stress functions are assumed such that they can represent the stress singularity at the crack tips, satisfying not only the equilibrium equations in the domain, but also the stress and displacement conditions on the crack surfaces and across the interface. Therefore, only the boundary conditions of the plate need be considered, and they can be satisfied approximately by the Boundary Collocation Method. Numerical examples demonstrated that the proposed method gives satisfactory results and has many advantages compared to other methods.
