Dynamic stress intensity factors for an interfacial crack between two dissimilar elastic, fully anisotropic media are studied. The mathematical problem is reduced to three coupled singular integral equations. Using Jacobi polynomials, solutions to the singular integral equations are obtained numerically. The orders of stress singularity and stress intensity factors of an interfacial crack in a (θ(1)/θ(2)) composite solid agree well with the finite element solutions.

The problem of a double lap joint is analyzed and solved by using integral transform techniques. Singular integral equations are deduced from integral transform solutions using boundary and continuity conditions appropriate to the problem. Numerical results are obtained for the case of identical materials for the cover and central layers. Stress-intensity factors are calculated and presented in the form of a table and contact stresses are shown in the form of curves for various values of geometrical parameters.

In this study, the stress intensity factor (SIF) of an interface kinked crack is analyzed by the singular integral equation of the body force method. The problem can be expressed by distributing the body force doublets of the tension and shear types along all the boundaries of the kinked and interface crack parts. The SIFs can be obtained directly from the densities of the body force doublets at the crack tips. Although the problem has already been calculated using the crack connection model, the accuracy of the analysis has not been clarified. From the analysis results in this study, it can be seen that the SIFs calculated by the crack connection model have a nonnegligible error, and the present method gives more accurate results. The advantage of the present method is that the SIFs of the kinked and the interface crack tips can be obtained at the same time with high accuracy.
