The problem of a crack in a thin layer terminating perpendicular to a layer/substrate interface is analyzed for a general case of elastic anisotropy. The crack is modelled by means of continuous distribution of dislocations, which is assumed to be singular at the crack tip. A system of simultaneous functional equations is obtained that enables to find the singularity exponent λ. The reciprocal theorem (ψ-integral) is used to compute the generalized stress intensity factor (GSIF) through the remote stress and displacement field for a particular specimen geometry and boundary conditions using FEM. The results obtained are compared with the evaluation of GSIF based upon the dislocation arrays technique. Existing semi-analytical solution for singularities in anisotropic trimaterials is applied and its validity for the specimen investigated is checked by FEM. The evaluation of T-stress using the dislocation arrays technique is performed.
