Abstract Edge cracking represents one of the most prominent damage modes in engineering practice and hence receives immense attention from academic societies. When branched cracks or multiple cracks are present at the edge, their propagation may be affected by the interaction between the cracks. In this talk, we may cover the elasticity of a cracked half-plane with two typical scenarios: a double branched crack with two rays emanating from one point on the edge and two edge cracks spaced by a certain distance (Kalthoff–Winkler cracks). By adopting the combination of the Schwartz-Christoffel conformal mapping and the… More >
