Abstract
One of the most difficult and controversial areas of research in analytical fracture mechanics has been the evaluation of the distribution of stress intensification as a crack approaches a free boundary [1,2,3]. In fact, three dimensional analysis suggests the need for the definition of a quantity other than the classical stress intensity factor (SIF) for such cases at the free surface of a body.
