In the case of isotropic material the arbitrary reduced elastic compliance functions are defined by: ° ° + = % 1 Ca k m (12) Where m is the Lamé coefficient given by : ° ° ( ) = 2? 1 % E m n (13) And: = - - = + 3 4 3 1 in plane strain in plane stress k n n k n (14) Now, in assuming a plane stress state, by substituting Equation (7) into the classical energy release rate expression, we obtain a new formalism: ( ) ( ) × = = 1;2 8 real K K G s e a a a a (15) In Eq. (15) Gα represents the portion of opening and shear modes in terms of energy release rate. Next, using the numerical values of CRDFs and SIFs calculated above, the energy release rate can be estimated from Equation (15) independently of the material's elastic proprieties.
