A cracked sliding interface between anisotropic bimaterials. (English) Zbl 1081.76596

Summary: A general solution for the stresses and displacements of a cracked sliding interface between anisotropic bimaterials subjected to uniform tensile stress at infinity is given by using the Stroh’s formulation. Horizontal and vertical opening displacements on the interface, stress intensity factors, and energy release rate are expressed in real form, which are valid for any kind of anisotropic materials including the degenerate materials such as isotropic materials. It is observed that stresses exhibit the traditional inverse square root singularities near the crack tips, and the vertical opening displacement and energy release rate are intimately related to a real parameter \(\lambda\) determined by the elastic constants of the anisotropic bimaterials.
