Longitudinal fracture of inhomogeneous beams with material non-linearity: An analytical investigation

This paper describes an analytical approach for analysing of longitudinal fracture in beam structures which exhibit smooth material inhomogeneity along the height and length. A solution to the strain energy release rate is derived for a general loading scheme assuming non-linear mechanical behaviour...
