Approximate formulas for the energy release rate of a crack perpendicular to a material interface

Rock formations are very often characterized by the presence of fractures that have grown subcritically over geological time scales and under evolving stress fields. In mechanically layered systems, such fractures can either become layer-bound or penetrate into adjacent strata. The growth of fractur...
