This paper presents the effect of eccentric cracks on the behavior of stress intensity factors (SIF) of single edge crack in bi-material plates. According to literature, it is found that most of the research conducted previously more on central single edge crack and it is well understood. However, not many research conducted on the eccentric stress intensity factor of single edge crack in bi-material plates. In order to evaluate the SIFs of eccentric edge cracks, ANSYS finite element software is used to model plain strain single edge crack in a plate subjected mode I loadings. The present SIFs are then validated with the existing central crack and it is well agreed to each others. According to the present results, it is found that mode I SIFs decreased insignificantly and mode II SIFs decreased asymptotically when the crack situated away from the central line. As expected all types of SIFs increased when crack length is increased.

Since the pioneering discussion by Irwin, a significant effort has been devoted to determining stress intensity factors (K) using experimental methods. Techniques have been developed to determine stress intensity factors from photoelastic, strain gage, caustics, and moire´ data. All of these methods apply to a relatively long single-ended-edge crack. To date, the determination of K for internal cracks that are double-ended by experimental methods has not been addressed. This paper describes a photoelastic study of tension panels with both central and eccentric internal cracks. The data recorded in the experiments was analyzed using a new series solution for the opening-mode stress intensity factor for an internal crack. The data was also analyzed using the edge-crack series solution, which is currently employed in experimental studies. Results indicated that the experimental methods usually provided results accurate to within three to five percent if the series solution for the internal crack was employed in an overdeterministic numerical analysis of the data. Comparison of experimental results using the new series for the internal crack and the series for an edge crack showed the superiority of the new series.
