β¦ Synopsis
This paper is concerned with the plane strain problem of a crack that terminates perpendicularly at the interface of a bonded composite. An integral JR,, is proposed. By the asymptotic analysis, it is shown that, so laong as R o is within the K-dominant region, JR0 = KZ,R6Z"+'((1 -u2)/2pL2)H. Here, H is a function of bimaterial constants only. Numerical results of H for a variety of material combinations are evaluated and presented.
In particular, when two materials are identical, JR0 reduces to J as expected. Since in this case, A = 0.5, the R. dependence disappears.
JR0 not only provides an alternative way to evaluate the stress intensity factor KB but also suggests itself a possible fracture initiation criterion.
