The Interface Crack Problem for Anisotropic Bodies

The two-dimensional interface crack problem is investigated for anisotropic bodies in the Comninou formulation. It is established that, as in the isotropic case, properly incorporating contact zones at the crack tips avoids contradictions connected with the oscillating asymptotic behaviour of physical and mechanical characteristics leading to the overlapping of material. Applying the special integral representation formulae for the displacement field the problem in question is reduced to the scalar singular integral equation with the index equal to -1. The analysis of this equation is given. The comparison with the results of previous authors shows that the integral equations corresponding to the interface crack problems in the anisotropic and isotropic cases are actually the same from the point of view of the theoretical and numerical analysis.
