Stress intensity factors for cracked wedges

Influence of Interface Shear Cracks Located Near the Angular Point of the Interface in a Bi-Homogeneous Body on the Stress State Formed in the Vicinity of this Point

“…In the major part of works devoted to the investigation of two-dimensional static problems of the theory of elasticity for wedge-shaped domains with cracks at the vertices and also in some other problems concerning the lines of discontinuities of displacements at the angular points, the analyzed bodies are considered as homogeneous [1,6,8,10,[12][13][14]. In the case of piecewise homogeneous bodies, the researchers studied solely the problems of the lines of discontinuity of displacements at the ends of interface cracks and also at the end of a crack appearing on the interface of the media [4,5].…”

Equilibrium state of the internal crack in the infinite elastic wedge with thin coating

“…Many studies of the problem of plane deformation of an elastic wedge with lateral faces free from stresses containing rectilinear cracks on the axis of symmetry are carried out. Approximate solutions and exact solutions are obtained in the case of the problem when the finite crack originates from the vertex of the wedge . Also in the case of a homogeneous problem, when a semi‐infinite crack begins at some distance from the top of the wedge .…”
