A calibrated finite clement technique, previously described by the author, is used to study the effect of orthotropic material properties on computed values of the stress intensity factor. For sufficiently long notched specimens in tension, bending and shear, the effect of otthotropy is negligible b

β¦ Synopsis
The contour invariance of J-integral and the strain distribution in the plastic region near the crack tip were experimentally investigated within the deformation theory of plasticity. The relationship between criteria of non-linear fracture mechanics is determined. The possibility of re-calculation of the &-value in fracture toughness K,, on account of specimen thickness changes is studied.

## Abstract This paper presents an enriched meshless method for fracture analysis of cracks in homogeneous, isotropic, nonβlinearβelastic, twoβdimensional solids, subject to modeβI loading conditions. The method involves an elementβfree Galerkin formulation and two new enriched basis functions (Typ
