The problem of a semi-infinite mode III crack terminating at a wedge-shaped inclusion consisting of bonded dissimilar materials is considered. The radial and angular dependence of the stress field upon material inhomogeneity is described in detail. Results for various geometries and elastic constant

โฆ Synopsis
An application of the superelement method in linear fracture mechanics is analysed. The case of a pure torsion problem is cited as an example. A convenient form of the ~~~lernent for a mode III crack problem at the crack tip and fo~ation of the superelement stiffness matrix are discussed. A numerical example for a bar with a slit is also shown.

Abstrat-By using the Hankel transform and the Fourier series, the stress intensity factor of a concentric penny-shaped crack in a finite long cylinder of a finite radius for mode III is determined. It is proved that the concentric penny-shaped cracks in an infinite long cylinder and in an infinite c
