The centrally cracked Brazilian disc: implications and solutions in case of closing cracks
A recently presented closed-form analytic solution for the displacement field and stress field in a cracked Brazilian disc, under uniform radial pressure along two symmetric arcs of its periphery, revealed that for a wide range of crack-axis inclinations, the lips of the crack tend to overlap each o...
