1. A large, thick plate contains a through crack with total crack length 2a, lying in the x-axis (figure below). The size of the specimen is much larger than the crack. The toughness of the material is Gc-11.7 KJ / m2 , the Young's modulus of the material is E-200 GPa, the Poisson's ratio v 0.25, and the yield stress is sufficiently high. If the remote stresses are σ o, :: 200 MPa. Try-100 MPa, what should be the critical...
