Abstract
Numerical solutions of singular integral equations are discussed in the analysis of a planar rectangular interfacial crack in three dimensional bimaterials. The problem is formulated as a system of singular integral equations on the basis of the body force method. In the numerical analysis, unknown body force densities are approximated by the products of the fundamental density functions and power series, where the fundamental density functions are chosen to express a two-dimensional interface crack exactly. The calculation shows that the present method gives smooth variations of stress intensity factor along the crack front for various aspect ratios. The present method gives rapidly converging numerical results and highly satisfied boundary conditions throughout the crack boundary. The stress intensity factors are given with varying the material combination and aspect ratio of the crack. It is found that the stress intensity factors K_I and K_<II> are determined by bimaterials constant ε alone, independent of elastic modulus ratio and Poisson's ratio.
