Abstract
To begin to understand fracture of materials, one must first know the stress and deformation fields near the tips of cracks. Thus the first topic in fracture mechanics is the linear elastic analysis of crack tip fields. The solutions derived here will be seen to violate the assumptions upon which linear elasticity theory is grounded. Nonetheless by invoking common sense principles, the theory of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) will be shown to provide the groundwork for many practical applications of fracture.
