The line spring model with arbitrary distributed loads on crack surfaces is used to obtain the approximate solution for a surface-cracked plate subjected to thermal shock. The general formulation is finally reduced to two integral equations for net ligament stress and moment. Assuming that inertia e

Abstract
Temperature and stress distributions in a hollow sphere are calculated, caused by a sudden cooling (thermal shock) of the inner surface of a hollow sphere. The thermal stresses are acting as load of surface cracks of approximate semiβelliptic shape. By means of the weight functions method stress intensity factors are estimated at the deepest point of the cracks using the wellβknown NewmanβRaju solution for semiβelliptical surface cracks in a plate as reference solution.

Stress intensity factors are calculated at the deepest point of partly circumferential surface cracks in a pipe loaded thermally and by internal pressure. The method of calculation is based on weight functions using the programm package "EASY" developed by Mattheck and Munz. Numerical values of the
The growth of cracks in glass arising from thermal shock on contact with a second material is an important problem in the volume production of glass articles. The thermal properties of the contacting material are controlling factors in producing cracking and a simple model of crack extension from th
