Abstract

In this paper the crack initiation under biaxial loading is studied. The crack extension angle and the critical stress of fracture are determined for various values of the crack inclination angle and for various values of the biaxial factor k. The Det.-criterion, developed by the author, was used. According to the Det.-criterion, the crack propagates in the direction of the maximum value of the determinant of the stress tensor. The Det.-criterion is simpler and more power than other fracture criteria used up to now.
