Abstract: A four-atomic unit cell corresponding to a close-packed layer of atoms is considered. It is shown that with occurrence of a shear the system prematurely loses stability. It is concluded that in Novozhilov-type integral criteria for brittle strength, it is reasonable to take into account shear strains.
