โฆ Synopsis
Two models of steady state brittle crack motion are commonly used. They are the models of Yoff6 (1) and of Craggs (2) (similar models have also been used by Barenblatt etc. of the Russian school). As is well known, Yoffr's model consists of a constant finite length crack moving with uniform velocity (i.e. the material closes up behind the crack as the crack advances) whereas Craggs's model consists of a semi-infinite crack with a finite region near its tip acted upon by a non-zero internal stress. Both these models have also been used with a Dugdale zone as an attempt to take into account the effect of plasticity at the moving crack tip.

The formulation departs significantly from the Papkovich-Neuber formulation used in the works of Kassir and Sih and Uflyand who have solved similar problems. This alternative
