Abstract
In this paper, the authors return to the classical problem of crack propagation in a lattice. The authors study the problems concerned with the possible regimes of stable steady-state crack propagation in an anisotropic lattice. They show that the steady-state crack propagation is impossible for some relations between the strength and elastic properties of the lattice. The authors also discuss the possibility of stable crack propagation at low speeds.
