This Based on the elastic theory of a crack perpendicular to and terminating at bimaterial interface, a generalized expression of the stress intensity factor is provided for a crack in single material and a crack perpendicular to bimaterial interface, finite element methods are used to calculate the stress intensity factors. The influences of the material combination and crack length on the the stress intensity factors were investigated. Results show that when the crack terminates at bimaterial interface, singular order ofKIis different from that of single material, and the values ofKIincrease with increasingE1/E2andμ1/μ2.
