Abstract

By means of an asymptotic expansion method of a regular series, an exact higher-order analysis has been carried out for the near-tip fields of an interfacial crack between two different elastic-plastic materials. The condition of plane strain is invoked. Two group of solutions have been obtained for the crack surface conditions: (1) traction free and (2) frictionless contact, respectively. It is found that along the interface ahead of crack tip the stress fields are co-order continuous while the displacement fields are cross-order continuous. The zone of dominance of the asymptotic solutions has been estimated.
