A crack-tip region may be divided by two curvilinear radii into three curvilinear wedges, a thin wedge of zero wedge angle flanked by two identical wedges of wedge angle \(180^ \circ\). It is shown that after a mode I deformation the zero wedge angle is ``expanded'' into \(180^ \circ\) whereas the other two \(180^ \circ\) wedge angles are `` shrunk'' to zero. The calculation is made for an nth order \(I_ 2\)-incompressible material.
