Notes:
Secondary elastic crack tip stress intensity factors are defined in a convenient way consistent with the primary stress intensity factor definition. Methods of evaluation of these secondary stress intensity factors are developed. They are evaluated for example configurations with cracks. It is shown that the first secondary term may be sufficient to evaluate the effects of secondary stresses beyond the usual stress intensity factor and nominal normal stresses parallel to the crack direction.
