An elliptical crack subjected to coupled phonon–phason loadings in a three-dimensional body of two-dimensional hexagonal quasicrystals is analytically investigated. Owing to the existence of the crack, the phonon and phason displacements are discontinuous along the crack face. The phonon and phason displacement discontinuities serve as the unknown variables in the generalized potential function method which are used to derive the boundary integral equations. These boundary integral equations governing Mode I, II, and III crack problems in two-dimensional hexagonal quasicrystals are expressed in integral differential form and hypersingular integral form, respectively. Closed-form exact solutions to the elliptical crack problems are first derived for two-dimensional hexagonal quasicrystals. The corresponding fracture parameters, including displacement discontinuities along the crack face and stress intensity factors, are presented considering all three crack cases of Modes I, II, and III. Analytical solutions for a penny-shaped crack, as a special case of the elliptical problem, are given. The obtained analytical solutions are graphically presented and numerically verified by the extended displacement discontinuities boundary element method.

The so-called T-stress, or second term of the William (1957) series expansion for linear elastic crack-tip fields, has found many uses in fracture mechanics applications. In this paper, an interaction integral method for calculating the T-stress for two-dimensional crack problems using the extended radial point interpolation method (XRPIM) is presented. Typical advantages of RPIM shape function are the satisfactions of the Kronecker’s delta property and the high-order continuity. The T-stress can be calculated directly from a path independent interaction integral entirely based on the J-integral by simply the auxiliary field. Several benchmark examples in 2D crack problem are performed and compared with other existing solutions to illustrate the correction of the presented approach.

Two-dimensional crack problems in a three-layered material are analysed numerically under the conditions of plane strain. An image method is proposed to obtain a fundamental solution for dislocation dipoles in trilayered media. The governing equations can be constructed by distributed dislocation technique and the solutions are sought in terms of the displacement discontinuity method. Comparisons are made between existing results in the literature and numerical results for different cases and good agreements are found.

The main objective of this study is to examine the two dimensional surface crack problems in a system with an interface between two elastic-plastic solids of different yield strength subjected to mode I mechanical loading. The surface cracks growth is considered to occure along the interface direction of bimaterials which is perfectly bonded to each others. A two dimensional finite elementmethod is used to solve the structural problem. Solid 183-node elements are utilized to simulate the strain singularity around the crack front. The crack surface is subjected to a compressive load by three point bending. The stress intesity factors are computed by using the displacement correlation technique. The primary goal is to develop a model crack tip stresses and strains in a manner that is useful for crack growth initiation and propagation in a FGM.
