Abstract
The effects of rapidly applied load on the J-integral and stress inten sity factor (K) of a cracked solid have been investigated here. The va riation of J has been studied using an energy balance approach, wherea s that of K has been dealt with elastodynamic considerations together with several simplifying assumptions and approximations. A constitutiv e model that is dependent on J and K formulated in this fashion, shoul d exhibit the influence of loading rates.
