Petersburg State University of Means of Communication, St. Petersburg, 198103

Abstract: Versions of the formulation of a two-dimensional fracture criterion are discussed. Possible methods for determining the value of the structural fracture parameter are analyzed. Theoretical estimates are compared with experimental data and results obtained using alternative criteria.

Keywords: crack, hole, cavity, structural criterion, critical load.
