Using the modified Irwin model and the modified Dugdale model, the plastic zone size near the interface crack tip in a ductile layer bonding two dissimilar elastic substrates is predicted. Validity of the models is examined by finite element method. The effects of several factors such as the mode mixity, T-stress and material properties are explored. The plastic zone size significantly decreases with the Poisson's ratio of the ductile layer.
