Scale effects and crack propagation in non-linear elastic structures

Research output: Journal article publication › Journal article › Academic research › peer-review

Abstract

New scaling laws are proposed for crack propagation in geometrically similar non-linear elastic structures. The stresses to cause cracking in large non-linear elastic structures are even smaller than those in larger linear structures.
