Conclusions
The results obtained here can also be used for a plate with a central through crack of the normal rupture type when it is subjected to tension by constant fillers and 1) the material of which the plate is composed, having orthotropic viscoelastic strain properties, can be modeled by a uniform orthotropic viscoelastic material; 2) the prefracture region at the edge of an advancing crack in the plate is small in the height direction; 3) the length of the prefracture region is constant during propagation of the crack.
