## In this work, a new fracture hypothesis referred to as the Z-criterion is developed for mode III cracks in orthotropic composite materials. The new theory predicts critical crack propagation conditions and the crack propagation direction. The Z-criterion (Zhang et of., Engng

The paper examines two existing models for predicting the load-deflection behavior of plain concrete from fracture energy measured in three-point bending. These models are shown to overestimate the peak load attainable by concrete beams. This major drawback is overcome by proposing a new model tha
