In fracture mechanics, much interest for analysts is on the tip of the crack, as it is a singularity point where the stress field becomes mathematically infinite.
For two-dimensional fracture problems, the enriched basis function is used at the tip of the crack, and then the enriched BEFM is presented.
When the enriched BEFM is used, the singularity of the stresses at the tip of the crack can be shown better than that in the BEFM.
In 2012, a previously dormant crack in the ice shelf began to show signs of growing again, and since then it's lengthened at a rate of about a mile a year — the tip of the crack is now positioned just 6 kilometers, or 3.7 miles, from the research station.
It is shown that only the component parallel to the crack tip of the crack driving force is a reliable quantity that can be used in numerical simulations of a Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) situation.
Plastic energy dissipated during growth of a crack within a small area, known as process zone at the tip of the crack and area below cyclic stress strain curve was used in the energy balance.

For the crack propagation problem under complex loads, an infinitesimal branch crack needs to be established at the tip of the main crack, and the crack propagation direction can be determined by the stress intensity factor or the propagation rate of the branch crack.
The presence of matrix cracking with fibre continuity introduces bridging action that has an influence on the stress intensity factors at the crack tip of the external crack.
Solutions for the Mode I stress intensity factors (SIFs) at the tips of the crack under a single concentrated load are found by the superposition of the SIFs due to the two pairs of concentrated loads, symmetric and anti-symmetric loads.
Considering the symmetry of the structure, the two tips of the crack were assume to propagate at the same rate.
Before the onset of crack growth a needle-like domain is formed at the tip of the stationary crack, but this does not effect the crack tip stress intensity factor.
