Abstract
In this paper, the crack tip stress method is extended so that the intensity of the singular stress field of the SLJ with two real stress singularity orders can be analyzed. Two types of the reference models are proposed; one is the tensile force model; the other one is the shear force model. The intensities of the singular stress fields of the reference models are calculated by the reciprocal work contour integral method (RWCIM). The intensities of the singular stress field of the SLJ are calculated by superposing those of the reference models. Then the accuracy of the present method is discussed by comparing the present results with the solutions which are calculated by the RWCIM.
