The energy release rate for an interface crack in pseudo-isotropic dissimilar materials was obtained by the eigenfunction expansion method using the two-term William's type complex stress function. The complex stress function for pseudo-isotropic materials must be different from that for anisotropic materials. The energy release rate for an interface crack in pseudo-isotropic dissimilar materials was analyzed numerically by RWCIM. The results obtained were verified by comparing the other worker's results and discussed.
