TY - JOUR T1 - Quasi-static crack growth in hydraulic fracture JF - Nonlinear Analysis Y1 - 2014 A1 - Stefano Almi A1 - Gianni Dal Maso A1 - Rodica Toader AB -

We present a variational model for the quasi-static crack growth in hydraulic fracture in the framework of the energy formulation of rate-independent processes. The cracks are assumed to lie on a prescribed plane and to satisfy a very weak regularity assumption.
