The structure of stress and strain fields at the border of three dimensional cracks in a tension field is investigated for elastoplastic materials treated by a deformation theory. The investigation is based upon the physics of the problem and is conducted with mathematical rigour. It is found that t

โฆ Synopsis
The general expression for three-dimensional stress distribution around a flat crack under arbitrary loadings is proved and discussed. Conditions under which the expression is valid or invalid are presented. A closed form solution for singular stress field at the intersection of a crack border with a free surface is obtained.

In the paper, a new kind of stress singular element is introduced for crack problems. This kind of element is more simple and widely used than those presented before. In the paper, a cube with embedded circular crack and a first kind Benchmark problem are studied. The study shows that using quarter-
For the computation of the singular behavior of an elastic field near a three-dimensional vertex subject to displacement boundary conditions we use a boundary integral equation of the first kind whose unknown is the boundary stress. Localization at the vertex and Mellin transformation yield a one-di
Three-dimensional finite element computation is performed for a through edge crack lying on an interface between an elastic-plastic material and a perfectly rigid substrate. The modified Gurson model suggested by Tvergaard and Needleman is used in the calculation. The distributions of stresses and m
By using the expressions of Hartranft and Sih for the stress field at the tip front of an arbitrary crack. the problem of crack propagation under combined stresses in a three-dimensional medium has been discussed on the basis of ((T")~,,, theory and its modification, (tm )m.,r theory. General result
