Analysis of Stochastic Equation Models of Crack Growth

  • Conference paper
Probabilistic Methods in the Mechanics of Solids and Structures

Summary

In this paper we present a short summary of stochastic crack growth equations that have been proposed, their strengths and weaknesses, and how they relate to features observed from real crack growth data. Suggestions are presented as to what directions research efforts should take in order to develop more realistic models. Initial results towards this goal are discussed.
