Agreement shown between calculated and measured terminal velocities for brittle cracks in variety of materials, confirms proposition first made by N.F.MOTT that velocity is governed by supply of kinetic energy to crack field; result provides further evidence for A.A.GRIFFITH's proposition. Report to Committee of Brit Welding Research Assn.
