Boundary element method analysis of interface cracks between orthotropic layers

The boundary element method (BEM) with quadratic quarter-point crack-tip element is employed to obtain the stress intensity factors, K1 and K2, the phase angle ψ, as well as the strain energy release rates G of the crack-tip occurring in either completely isotropic materials or bimaterial interfaces...
