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.

Using complex potentials and the concept of repeated roots for general solutions, logarithmic stress singularities and coefficient vectors for v-notched cracks in isotropic dissimilar materials are evaluated and demonstrated to have no influence on the logarithmic stress singularities.

The near-tip field of mode-I dynamic cracks steadily propagating in a strain softening material is investigated under plane strain conditions. The material is assumed to be incompressible and its deformation obeys the $J_2$ flow theory of plasticity. A power-law stress-strain relation with strain softening is adopted to account for the damage behavior of materials near the dynamic crack tip. By assuming that the stresses and strain have the same singularity at the crack tip. this paper obtains a fully continuous dynamic crack-tip field in the damage region. Results show that the stress and strain components the same logarithmic singularity of (In(R/r))$\delta$, and the angular variations of filed quantities are identical to those corresponding to the dynamic cracks in the elastic-perfectly plastic material.

Stress wave propagations in an elastic half space to a normal point force of ramp type in time are analyzed. The governing equations are transformed by applying the Laplace and Hankel transforms with respect to time and radial distance. The inversion of Laplace transforms are performed by employing the Cagniard-de Hoop method, where the Rayleigh waves at surface are obtained by including the residue terms. The stress waves computed at the location very cose to the surface are shown to be almost identical to the surface waves obtained by the residue method except the Rayleigh wavefront. It is found that at the surface, the stresses are dominated by the Rayleigh waves, whose amplitudes increase linearly with time when time is very large. It is also found that in the interior part, the radial stress has a logarithmic singularity at the shear wavefront, while tangential stress shows no singularity.

V-노치 균열에서 열하중이 작용하는 경우는 비제차형 경계조건의 문제가 되고, 이 조건에 대한 방정식의 일반해를 구하기 위해서 재차형 연립방정식에 대한 일반해(Homogeneous solution)와 비제차형 연립방정식에 대한 특수해(Particular solution)의 두 가지 해를 구할 수 있다. 이들 해는 V-노치 균열에 대한 고유치가 되고 이 고유치가 중복근을 가지게 되는 경우에는 로그항(1n[r])이 나타나게 되고 이 항에 의해서 응력을 무한대로 발산시키므로 이를 대수응력특이성이라 한다. 열하중이 작용할 때 대수응력특이성을 나타내는 로그항의 계수가 영(0)이 되어 대수응력특이성이 사라지게 되므로 V-노치 선단에서의 응력특이성은 고유치와 그에 대한 고유벡터에 의해 결정된다. 본 논문에서는 비정상상태 열하중이 가해지는 등방성 이종재료 내의 V-노치 균열문제에서 패기 각도와 이종재료의 기계적 성질에 의해 결정되는 응력특이성지수를 구하고 이에 대한 응력강도계수를 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS와 상반일 경로 적분법(RWCIM)을 이용하여 구하였다.
