Abstract

Application of fractal geometry to the problems of fracture mechanics is discussed. Fractal generalization of the energy balance equation to the case of non-square root singularities of the stress field is proposed. Analysis of the fracture at the sharp angular notch in a plate on the basis of the generalized energy balance equation is performed. Good corroboration between the suggested approach and experiments is observed.
