Aktract-The mode II (forward shear) fracture of western hemlock wood beams is -studied. Results of a finite element analysis are presented showing the relationship between the mode II stress-intensity factor and the geometry of the wood beam. Two types of loading are considered: a concentrated load

A calculation procedure for plates with semi-elliptical surface cracks under tension and bending with aspect ratios of d c 5 0.2 and arbitrary relative crack depths d t is presented. For the computation an improved line spring model is used. K,-values are calculated along the crack contour. For the
## At&r&-A finite element method with virtual crack extension technique is employed to find the weight function of the stress intensity factor for a cracked composite laminate. Since the weight function is load independent, once it is obtained, the stress intensity factor of a cracked laminate sub
