The problem of the equilibrium of a plane with a circular hole and a shear crack is considered to model failure of an excavation (borehole or circular opening) in rocks weakened by discontinuities (planes of weakness). It is assumed that sliding occurs in a part of the plane of weakness when the Moh
## A B S T R A C T A tentative analysis of an unstable shear crack propagating axially in the wall of a long pipe under gas pressure is developed. Six processes known to be associated with crack propagation are treated numerically: (1) axial decompression of the gas, (2) bulging of the pipe wall,
An asymptotic solution of the problem for a shear crack propagating at an intersonic velocity is given that determines the size of the end zone, the distribution of the displacement jump in it and the dependence of the propagation velocity on an effective stress intensity factor, introduced in this
