A calculation procedure for plates with semi-elliptical surface cracks under tension and bending with aspect ratios of d c 5 0.2 and arbitrary relative crack depths d t is presented. For the computation an improved line spring model is used. K,-values are calculated along the crack contour. For the

The interaction of time-harmonic elastic waves with a surface-breaking crack, which is inclined under an arbitrary angle with the free boundary of an elastic half-plane, is investigated. Particular attention is devoted to the near-tip stress intensities induced by the incidence of elastic waves. By
A simple method is described which allows the estimation of local stress intensity factors of two-dimensional cracks by use of the weight function basic relation. The method is applied especially to semi-elliptical surface cracks. Two examples are considered. The half-penny shaped crack under bendin
A simple interference method has been used to measure the opening displacement of cracks in glass plates under eccentric tension load. The results have been compared with analytical predictions from the boundary collocation method and the Westergaard analysis. Since the crack opening displacement is
The stress intensity factor at the deepest point of a semi-elliptical surface crack is calculated for stress gradients in direction of depth. The method is based on weight functions. The crack opening displacement for the reference problem is calculated with a method proposed by Petroski and Achenba
