    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.8, No.3, pp. 107-114, 2008, DOI:10.3970/icces.2008.008.107

    Abstract In fracture mechanics, corner and wedge singularities have to be considered for two- and three-dimensional problems in isotropic and layered anisotropic continua. To investigate the behaviour of crack propagation starting from corners and edges the information about stress asymptotics in the vicinity of three-dimensional corner points is needed [1]. Thus, in this paper two aspects are studied: the interface crack in layered anisotropic materials with re-entrant corners and surface cracks in homogeneous isotropic continua. Moreover a strategy is presented to model such surface breaking cracks efficiently within a numerical 3D simulation [2]. To study the… More >
