It is assumed that a transversely isotropic layer is sandwiched between two isotropic semi-infinite half spaces, and contains a penny-shaped crack located in its mid-plane. The problem is formulated by using integral transform technique under uniform load and reduced to a singular integral equation. This integral equation is solved numerically by using Gaussian Quadrature Formulae. Stress intensity factors are given for various penny-shaped crack sizes and transversely isotropic materials.en10.1002/zamm.200310062info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTransversely isotropic materialStress intensity factorPenny-shaped crackSingular integral equationArticle836409418Q2WOS:000183827600005Q4
