In the first place let us suppose the value of 11 the same for every direction of this line ; then is it manifest that the direction in which a fissure may be formed immediately at the point P cannot be determined in any degree by the ...

Recurring again to the simple case of a lamina , it is easily shown that if a fissure in its continuous propagation through consecutive points meet a line of less resistance , it will be propagated across it without change of direction ...

The direction of the fissures will then be always perpendicular to that of the greater tension . If therefore the directions of this tension at different points be parallel to each other , the fissure will be rectilinear , whatever be ...
