Abstract
The problem of multiple cracks originating at free surface (surface damage) in an anisotropic material is considered. We focus on the effect of material anisotropy on the mechanics of crack interactions – in particular, on the suppressing effect of interactions on crack nucleation and growth under the tensile loading (stress shielding). Importantly, this effect may change to the opposite one of enhancement, under the shear loading. These effects strongly depend on the material anisotropy. Calculations were performed for the orthotropic materials and the effect of anisotropy was examined by case studies of specific configurations that included comparison with the case of the isotropic material.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Engineering Science is not limited to a specific aspect of science and engineering but is instead devoted to a wide range of subfields in the engineering sciences. While it encourages a broad spectrum of contribution in the engineering sciences, its core interest lies in issues concerning material modeling and response. Articles of interdisciplinary nature are particularly welcome.
The primary goal of the new editors is to maintain high quality of publications. There will be a commitment to expediting the time taken for the publication of the papers. The articles that are sent for reviews will have names of the authors deleted with a view towards enhancing the objectivity and fairness of the review process.
Articles that are devoted to the purely mathematical aspects without a discussion of the physical implications of the results or the consideration of specific examples are discouraged. Articles concerning material science should not be limited merely to a description and recording of observations but should contain theoretical or quantitative discussion of the results.
