Abstract
A theoretical analysis for a ductile material shows that (a) plane strain growth of a deep crack in a beam and (b) growth of a long through-wall circumferential crack in a pipe are more likely to be unstable when the bending is such as to close the crack where it intersects with the free surface than if the bending is such as to open the crack.
