A finite element formulation based on the work of Yamada and Okumura14 is presented to determine the order of singularity and angular variation of the stress and displacement fields surrounding a singular point on a free edge of anisotropic materials. Emphasis is placed on the computational aspects of this method when applied to configurations including fully bonded multi-material junctions intersecting a free edge as well as materials containing cracks intersecting a free edge. The study shows that the singularity of the three-dimensional stress field may be accurately determined with a relatively small number of elements only when a proper level of numerical integration is used. The method is applied to isotropic and orthotropic materials with a crack intersecting a free edge and an anisotropic three-material junction intersecting a free edge. The efficiency and accuracy of the method indicates it could be used to develop a numerical solution for the singular field that could in turn be used to create free-edge enriched finite elements.
