| Summary: | In the paper, the elastic-plastic fracture behavior of an interface crack between two dissimilar materials is investigated. The mixed-mode Dugdale model is applied to examine the plastic zone size and the crack tip opening displacement. In numerical examples, the plastic zone size and the crack tip opening displacement of an interface crack under uniform loads are studied in detail. Two formulae are proposed to calculate the plastic zone size and the crack tip opening displacement of an interface crack under small scale yielding conditions. |
