• The surface energy created by the two new crack
surfaces: (2at)(2γs)
(γs : energy per unit area)
• When a crack is introduced into the plate, the change in
potential energy per unit thickness of the plate is

Plastic-zone size correction
• The elastic stress field away of a crack with plastic zone is equivalent of a
crack in an elastic material of a crack length 2(a + ry).
• Local yielding at crack tip
→ plastic zone (radius ry)
→ perturbation of the elastic stress field
effective crack length: (2a)eff = 2(a + ry)
• K is calculated by using effective crack length.

Statistical analysis of failure strength
Weibull distribution
A body of volume V can be considered to be made up of n
elements, each of volume Vo.
The probability the solid will survive under an applied stress σ
is P(V).
P(V) = P(Vo)n
Weibull defined a risk-of-rupture parameter R = -[ln P(Vo)].
He also postulated R = [(σ – σu)/σo]m
m : Weibull modulus
σu: no failure below σu; σo ~ mean strength
