Zj. Zeng et Sh. Dai, STRESS INTENSITY FACTORS FOR AN INCLINED SURFACE CRACK UNDER BIAXIAL STRESS STATE, Engineering fracture mechanics, 47(2), 1994, pp. 281-289
A simplified analytical model for an inclined surface crack subjected
to a system of biaxial stresses has been proposed and closed-form solu
tions for the mode I and mode III stress intensity factors at the maxi
mum depth point of an inclined surface crack have been derived. The va
riation patterns of the mode I and mode III normalized stress intensit
y factors with angle of crack inclination and biaxial load ratio are g
iven quantitatively.
