Abstract
The model of prefracture zones is generalized to a crack between two anisotropic materials. An exact analytical solution is found on the assumptions that the prefracture zone is localized on the crack continuation and that only the normal displacements undergo discontinuity in the zone. From this solution, equations for determining the prefracture length and crack tip opening are derived
