Friction contact of the edges of an interface crack under the conditions of tension and shear.

We study the stressed state of two rigidly fastened elastic half planes made of different materials and containing an interface crack. The friction contact of the crack edges is taken into account. By using the Wiener-Hopf method, the solution of the integral equation of the problem is obtained in the closed form. The lengths of the regions of contact of the crack edges and the distributions of stresses in these regions and-over the boundary of the half planes (outside the crack) are found explicitly.
