Chapter Three Energy release rate theory Energy release rate G is another important concept in fracture mechanics. There is a relationship between G and K. One is known. Another can also be known. Sometime, it is difficult to obtain K factor. However, it is perhaps easy to calculate G. §3-1 Concept of energy release rate 1. Basic concepts (1) Strain energy Work done by the external force is changed to the strain energy stored in the elastic deformation. The strain energy can be released and the elastic deformation then disappears. Strain energy density w: strain energy per unit volume. ,
