Abstract
Material fracture by opening (mode I) is not lonely responsible for fracture propagation. Many industrial examples show the presence of mode II and mixed mode I + II. The present work consists in the elaboration of a code to estimate the size of the plastic zone at the crack tip under mode I, mode II and mixed mode I + II loading. The computations are made according to Von Mises and Tresca criteria. The results obtained are compared to those measured by experiments.
