Abstract

A numerical procedure is presented for employing a weight function of a crack along the interface of two bonded linearly elastic, homogeneous solids. In this investigation, the numerical weight function is determined for a bimaterial infinite body composed of glass and epoxy. Stress intensity factors are obtained for mechanical loading and compared to closed form solutions. The stress intensity factors resulting from residual curing stresses are obtained by means of the weight function and superposed with those from a particular mechanical loading.
