In bonded structures, there are V-notched cracks in dissimilar materials and the stress concentration of these V-notched cracks causes to occur interface cracks in dissimilar materials Therefore the strength evaluation of V-notched cracks in dissimliar materials seems to be important. The stress fields of a V-notched cracks is known as .sigma.$_{ij}$ .var. K $r_{p-1}$,where K is the stress intensity factor and p-1 is the stress singularity. When the distance, r, approaches to 0 at the stress fields of V-notched cracks, the stresses become infinites by two more stress singularities of p-1 and p-1 is no more -0.5. Stress singularities and stress intensity factors for V-notched cracks in dissimilar materials are treated and discussed. The Newton-Raphson method which is an efficient numerical method for solving a non-linear equation is used for solving stress sigularities. And stress intensity factors are solved by the collocation method using the Newton-Raphson and least squares method. The effects of stress intensity factors and stress singularities on stress fields of V-notched cracks in dissimilar materials are studied by using photoelasic isochromatic frings patterns obtained from computer graphics.s.

Most engineers interested in stress singularities have focused mainly on the research of power stress singularities for v-notched cracks in dissimilar materials. The logarithmic stress singularity was discussed a little in Bogy's paper. The power-logarithmic stress singularity was reported by Dempsey and Sinclair. It was indicated that the logarithmic singularity is only a special case of power-logarithmic stress singularities. Then, Dempsey reported specific cases which have power-logarithmic singularities even fur homogeneous boundary conditions. It was known that logarithmic stress singularities for v-notched cracks in dissimilar materials occurs when the surfaces of a v-notched crack have constant tractions. In this paper, using the complex potential method, the stresses and displacements having logarithmic stress singularities were obtained and the coefficients vectors were calculated by a numerical program code: Mathematica. It was shown that our analysis models don't have logarithmic stress singularities under the constant tractions, although the coefficient vectors are existing.

The problem of eigenvalue and eigenvector for v-notched cracks in pseudo-isotropic and anisotropic dissimilar materials was obtained to discuss stress singularities from traction free boundary and perfect bonded interface conditions assuming like the form of complex stress function for v-notched cracks in an isotropic material. Eigenvalues were solved by a commercial numerical program, MATHEMATICA. The relation between wedged angle and material property for eigenvalue, ${\lambda}$ indicating stress singularities of v-notched cracks in pseudo-isotropic and anisotropic dissimilar materials was examined.

The V-notched crack problem in dissimilar materials can be formulated as an eigenvalue problem. The RWCIM(Reciprocal Work Contour Integral Method) is applied to the determination of the eigenvector coefficients associated with eigenvalues for V-notched cracks in pseudo-isotropic and anisotropic dissimilar materials. The RWCIM algorithm is programed by the commercial numerical program, MATHEMATICA. The numerical results obtained are shown that the RWCIM is a useful method for determining the eigenvector coefficients of V-notched cracks in pseudo-isotropic and anisotropic dissimilar materials.

V-notched crack problems can be formulated as eigenvalue problems. The problem ova v-notched crack in anisotropic and/or pseudo-isotropic dissimilar materials was formulated as an eigenvalue problem to discuss stress singularities. The eigenvalue problem was served by the commercial numerical program; MATHEMATICA. The specific data of eigenvalues possessing the stress singularity were obtained. Stress singularities fur v-notched cracks in anisotropic and/or pseudo-isotropic dissimilar materials were discussed according to the relation between wedge angle and material property. It was shown that there are three cases of eigenvalues possessing the stress singularity; one real, two real and one complex.

This paper examines that it is possible to apply RWCIM for determining eigenvector coefficients associated with eigenvalues for V-notched cracks in anisotropic dissimilar materials using the complex stress function. To verify the RWCIM algorithm, two tests will be shown. First it is performed to ascertain whether predicted coefficients associated with eigenvectors is obtained exactly. Second, it makes an examination of the state of stress for FEM and RWCIM according to a number of eigenvectors at a location far away from the V-notched crack tip.
