Energy release rate for non-smooth cracks in planar elasticity

(Redirected from Publication:495138)




Abstract: This paper is devoted to the characterization of the energy release rate of a crack which is merely closed, connected, and with density 1/2 at the tip. First, the blow-up limit of the displacement is analyzed, and the convergence to the corresponding positively 1/2-homogenous function in the cracked plane is established. Then, the energy release rate is obtained as the derivative of the elastic energy with respect to an infinitesimal additional crack increment.
