How to deal with peel stress singularities in a fine FE mesh at the interface of a bi-material free-edge to be used for stress-based fatigue analysis?

Peel stress singularities occur at the bi-material interface of the free edges of, for example, a steel-adhesive-steel sandwich specimen of say 500 mm in length, 100 mm in width, and 10 mm...
