Abstract: The interaction among cracks is studied by using pseudo-traction method. Bifurcation condition of crack growth pattern can be expressed by the crack length/ spacing ratio, . The interution among cracks leads to bifurcation of crack growth patterns if is larger than a critical value . Bifurcation condition for arrays of 2 parallel cracks, arrays of 3 parallel cracks and arrays of infinite arrays of cracks subjected to shear stress is analysed theoretically. The value of is 0.816 497 5,0.717 572 8 and 0.636 638 5 for arrays of 2 parallel cracks, arrays of 3 parallel cracks and arrays of infinite arrays of cracks respectively. The numerical results show that the value of decreases with increasing the number of cracks.

Key words: parallel cracks, far field shear stress, bifurcation, crack length/spacing ratio
