Abstract: | Several types of singular stress fields may appear at the corner where an interface between two bonded materials intersects a traction-free edge depending on the material combinations. Since the failure of the multi-layer systems often originates at the free-edge corner, the analysis of the edge interface crack is the most fundamental to simulate crack extension. In this study, the stress intensity factors for an edge interfacial crack in a bi-material bonded strip subjected to longitudinal tensile stress are evaluated for various combinations of materials using the finite element method. Then, the stress intensity factors are calculated systematically with varying the relative crack sizes from shallow to very deep cracks. Finally, the variations of stress intensity factors of a bi-material bonded strip are discussed with varying the relative crack size and material combinations. This investigation may contribute to a better understanding of the initiation and propagation of the interfacial cracks. |
