Abstract
Inhomogeneous materials with doubly periodic non-uniform cracks under antiplane shear is dealt with. By using conformal mapping technique and elliptic function theory, the stress field and stress intensity factor at the tip of each crack are derived in closed form. Numerical examples show the influences of some microstructure parameters of crack distribution on stress intensity factor.
