Fracture of a body with a periodic set of coaxial cracks under forces directed along them: an axisymmetric problem

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Linearized solid mechanics is used to solve an axisymmetric problem for an infinite body with a periodic set of coaxial cracks. Two nonclassical fracture mechanisms are considered: fracture of a body with initial stresses acting in parallel to crack planes and fracture of materials compressed along cracks. Numerical results are obtained for highly elastic materials described by the Bartenev–Khazanovich, Treloar, and harmonic elastic potentials. The dependence of the fracture parameters on the loading conditions, the physical and mechanical characteristics of the material, and the geometrical parameters is analyzed
