Mathematical Aspects Regarding Cracks Behaviour in Wood Composites

Abstract:

In this paper we study the interaction of two unequal collinear cracks in a pre-stressed fiber reinforced wood composite material in anti-plane mode of fracture. A mathematical model is associated to the mechanical problem. Starting from the boundary, constitutive and far field conditions we obtain the representation of the incremental displacement, stress and strain fields using two complex potentials. Using Sih s generalized fracture criterion we determine the critical incremental shear stress which produce crack propagation and the crack tips propagation direction in a particular case of a Pine wood composite.
