    Abstract:

    The enriched finite element method is used to solve the stress intensity factors for two bonded dissimilar materials containing a crack along the bond. By appending the displacement expressions for an interface crack to the common element, the enriched and transition element displacement model are obtained; the enriched finite element equation is derived. Two enrichment schemes are introduced to establish the finite element models for square plate center interface crack and rectangular plate unilateral oblique interface crack. The stress intensity factors are calculated directly from the finite element equation. The results, which are obtained by compared with analytical results, demonstrate that the enriched finite element method is a convenient and high precision calculation method for interface crack problems.
