heal.abstract	The method of reflected caustics was used to determine the complex stress intensity factors at the tips of cracks having any shape, which lie at the interface of two dissimilar elastic media. For the evaluation of complex S.I.Fs two measurements of appropriate lengths have to be made on the caustic formed at the crack tip. These measurements allow the determination of both the absolute value and the argument of the respective stress intensity factor. The method was applied for the solution of problems which are referred to cracks at interfaces between two elastic dissimilar media. The experimental results show a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical methods of evaluating SIFs. © 1981.	en
