Figure 5 : Stress intensity factors k I of the edge cracks to the surface for different distances d between the cracks: (a) for crack 1 (60° ≤ β ≤ 120°), (b) for crack 2 (60° ≤ β ≤ 120°), (c) for crack 1 (15° ≤ β ≤ 90°), (d) for crack 2 (15° ≤ β ≤ 90°). Two edge cracks with different sizes a 1 =1 and a 2 =0.5. and k II as function of the inclination angle β=β n
