L. Yang et al., EXPLICIT EXPRESSIONS OF TRANSIENT ELASTODYNAMIC CRACK-TIP FIELDS FOR MIXED-MODE CRACK-PROPAGATION, Engineering fracture mechanics, 48(4), 1994, pp. 573-582
Explicit results are presented for transient, mixed-mode, plane elasto
dynamic crack tip fields around a rapidly propagating crack in a homog
eneous, isotropic and linearly elastic solid. Expressions for stresses
and displacements are composed of steady-state terms and correspondin
g transient corrections and are put in the form of asymptotic series e
xpansions (up to six terms) in terms of crack tip polar coordinates.
