    HIGHER-ORDER ANALYS IS OF NEAR-T IP F IELDS AROUND AN INTERFACIAL CRACK BETWEEN

    TWO DISS IMILAR POWER LAW HARDENING MATERIALS*

    ABSTRACT: By means of an asymptotic expansion method of a regular series, an exact higher-order analysis has been carried out for the near-tip fields of an in- terfacial crack between two different elastic-plastic materials. The condition of plane strain is invoked. Two group of solutions have been obtained for the crack surface conditions: (1) traction freeand (2) frictionless contact, respectively. It is found that along the interface ahead of crack tip the stress fields are co-order continuous while the displacement fields are cross-order continuous. The zone of dominance of the asymptotic solutions has been estimated.

    KEY WORDS: interfacial crack, elastic-plastic, near-tip fields, higher-order asymp- totic analysis

    I. INTRODUCTION

    Up to now, the elastic problems in interface fracture mechanics have been widely in- vestigated. A detailed review of its advances can be found in Ruhle et al. [1]. By comparison, less work has been done for the elastic-plastic problems.

    Recently Shih and Asaro [u-5] have made some numerical finite element analyses of the near-tip fields, for elastic-plastic interracial crack, and found that the asymptotic behaviors of the near-tip fields directly depend on the lower hardening material. As r approaches zero, the behaviors of interracial crack are much more similar to those of the crack lying along the interface between a plastic solid and rigid substrate. They finally obtained a nearly separable form of near-tip fields of the HRR type.

    Wang[ 6] presented an exact asymptotic analysis for a crack lying on the interface be- tween an elastic-plastic material and an elastic material. A separable singular stress field of the HRR type has been found. These solutions only correspond to the certain mixity parameter M p. Some other advances in this field can be found in Gao and Lou [7].

    Based on the work of Wang [6], Xia and Wang Is] not only extensively analyzed the interracial crack problem with the traction vanishing on crack surfaces and obtained the full-continuons, separable form of solutions of the HRR type, but also obtained the sim- ilar solutions with the frictionless contact of crack surfaces. Furthermore, for any given mixity parameter value Mp the solution of the HRR type has been found with the weak discontinuity of the third-order derivative.

    As for the interfacial crack problem with the frictionless contact of the crack surfaces, Xia and Wang [9] have also made a high-order asymptotic analysis for its near tip fields. Aravas and Sharma[ 1~ also got some results in this aspect.

    In this paper an asymptotic expansion method of regular series was introduced to implement the high-order analysis of the near-tip fields for the interfacial crack in elastic- plastic power-law hardening bimaterials. Two different solutions in separable form have been obtained: Among them, one corresponds to the traction free condition of the crack surfaces, and another one corresponds to the frictionless contact condition of the crack surfaces. Our results indicated that along the interface ahead of crack tip, the stress fields are co-order continuous while the displacement fields are cross-order continuous.

    Using the high-order asymptotic solutions obtained here, the rational zone has been estimated in which the solutions in separable form of asymptotic series dominate.

    II. BASIC EQUATIONS

    Fig. 1 shows an interfacial crack between two mate- rials. These two materials are all elastic-plastic power- / ~-~ law hardening materials but with different hardening , / material X \ properties. Under the plane strain condition their con- / stitutive relations can be written as ( Y o~//~ \

    It is noted that, our analysing method is only suitable to the cases where both nl and n2 take integer values. In what follows a interfacial crack problem with nl -- 5, n2 = 3 will be investigated in detail.

    For the first-order near-t ip field, its governing equation is (2.19), in which n = nl within 0 _< 0 < ~r while n = n2 in 0 < 0 < 7r. The corresponding boundary condition on crack faces can be expressed by the stress function as

    Fig.2(a) and Fig.3(a) correspond to the ~raction free Condition and frictionless con- tact condition on the crack faces, respectively. Their mixity parameters are MoPpen = 0.937284 and M~o~t~ t = -0.515412. (The mixity parameter is defined by Shih[i3]: M p = 2tg_ 1 [ 5"0(0) "~

    \~0(0) / The analogous analysis can be carried out for the second-order near-tip fields. Its

    governing equation is (2.20). Here n -- ni in the upper part and n = n2 in the lower part. The boundary conditions on the crack faces and the traction continuity conditions on

    the interface are the same as (3.1a), (3.1b) and (3.2) except that F. is replaced by F0. The second-order displacement continuity on the interface is

    {e~ o - 211 - (n 1 - - 1)cl~P00 -4- 2nlC2grO.}[O=+O = 0 (3,4)

    Through a simple analysis, we find that, the solutions of the second-order fields are c2(ni + 1) times as large as those of the first order fields, i.e.

    ~.~. = c2(ni + 1)5~n. (3.5)

    However, the situation becomes relatively complicated for the third-order near-tip fields. Using (2.21) and (2.22) directly yields the governing equation

    Letting both c2 and c3 equal to zero will lead to a simple form of the stress field

    It can be found that the extent of the rational zone will change for different values of the" ratio O'o2/ /6o l . But generally speaking, the separable form of near-t ip fields for the interfacial crack discussed here only dominate within a very small range ( r< 10-6). This result coincides with that of Shih[ 11].

    Compared with the above discussed case (i.e. the crack faces open freely), the range in which the asymptotic solutions dominate will be much larger for the frictionless contact condition on the crack faces. This feature can be seen clearly in Fig.3.

    V. CONCLUSIONS

    In this paper an asymptotic expanding method of a regular series is introduced to investigate the interfacial crack in two different elastic power-law hardening materials. An exactly higher-order analysis is carried out for its near-tip stress strain fields. The solutions including first three terms are derived for asymptotic series of the stress field, with two different boundary conditions on the crack faces being considered: (1) traction free and (2) frictionless contact.

    Our analyses show that along the interface ahead of the crack tip the stress fields of the upper part will keep co-order continuous with those of the lower part. But for the displacement fields, the first-, the second-order fields of the upper part are equal to zero on the interface; the third-order field of the upper part will be continuous with the first-order one of the lower part. These co-order continuity of the stress field and cross-order continuity of the displacement field are important features of the near-tip stress strain fields of the interfacial crack in two dissimilar elastic-plastic materials.

    According to our investigations, the solutions of the fully continuous, first-order stress field can be only obtained for two specific mixity parameter M p. For nl = 5, n2 : 3, they are MoPpen -- 0.937284, McPontact = -0.515412.

    The second-order stress field is simply equal to c2(nl + 1) times the first-order stress field, i.e. 6Z~ o -- c2(n 1 -t- 1)6/3~,.. For the third-order stress field, its solution is composed of three parts (see (3.12)).

    In the case of nl -- 5, n2 -- 3, the rational existing range of the asymptot ic series solutions is estimated for the traction free condition on the crack faces. It is shown that if O'o2/O'ol --- 2; r < 2.57 10-6; and if O'o2/O'ol = 5, r < 1 10 -6.
