Abstract: | The problem of determining the effect of the media interface in a piecewise-homogeneous body on the stress concentration in
the vicinity of cracks located in one of the half-spaces is reduced to a system of two-dimensional singular equations of Newtonian
potential type. We study the effect of the relations of the elastic constants of the materials of a body composed of two half-spaces
on the stress intensity factors in the vicinity of a crack. We study different variants of the crack location relative to
the interface.
