Analytic solutions have been obtained for the stress intensity factor for a propagating and arresting anti-plane strain edge crack in a semi-infinite plate. Kostrov's analysis for this system has been used, and solutions have been obtained up to the time it takes for a stress wave emitted from the c

โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, the stress intensity factors (SIFs) of a single edge interface crack in the bi-material bonded strip subjected to in-plane tension and bending moment are investigated systematically. The SIFs are computed for arbitrary material combinations with varying the relative crack size a/W. Specifically, some necessary skills as refined mesh and extrapolations of the stress intensity factors are used to improve the accuracy of the calculation. For the edge interface crack, it is found that the dimensionless SIFs are not always finite for the edge interface cracks in the bonded semi-infinite plate depending on Dundurs' material composite parameters.

Crack extension paths are often irregular, producing rough fracture surfaces which have a fractal geometry. In this paper, crack tip motion along a fractal crack trace is analysed. A fractal kinking model of the crack extension path is established to describe irregular crack growth. A formula is der
