โœฆ Synopsis

Abatrac-Fracture properties in birefringent materials are studied by the improved method of caustics. A new method for determining stress intensity factors in birefringent materials is found. As examples, the stress intensity factors of epoxy and polycarbonate of plates with different cracks and loadings are determined. By comparison, the results of the paper are more precise than those of Zhang [Master's degree thesis, Northwestern Polytechnical University (1!990)].

The caustics formed from reflections from the rear faces of birefringent materials were shown to be twinned because of the optical anisotropy of the reflecting plates. An improved method for evaluating the stress intensity factor in the neighbourhood of a crack tip is developed, considering the firs
