Abstract
The problem we will consider in this chapter is that of crack development in a stressed plate. The ability to predict where a crack will develop in a stressed plate is of fundamental importance in the design of buildings, aircraft and nuclear reactors. Specifically, we will simulate crack and fracture development in a stressed, slotted copper plate.
