Abstract
The rectangular plate made of dissimilar materials is studied by bound ary collocation computations. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions ar: d etermined and the first coefficient of the eigenfunction expansion, th e stress intensity factor, is considered in detail. A simple relation between stress intensity factor, singularity exponent, and Dundurs par ameter a is proposed, and the influence of the plate length is discuss ed for different types of loading.
