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 ...
