Dissipation Of Energy In Extension Of CracksDissipation in elastic-plastic material calculated by two-dimensional finite-element method. Analytical procedure developed to calculate various components of dissipation of energy during extension of crack and to relate them to total dissipation of energy computed from global load-displacement response. Observations in study valid for other elastic-plastic fracture situations, including growth of cracks in pressure vessels in nuclear powerplants.
