Addendum to “Unstable crack motion is predictable” [2005. JMPS 53, 1071]

Using a scaling relationship discussed in an earlier paper [Abraham, F. F., 2005. Unstable crack motion is predictable. J. Mech. Phys. Solids 53, 1071–1075], we find that the steady-state speed of a unidirectional crack moving in a hyperelastic solid equals the crack speed in a linear solid with our...

Description
Summary:Using a scaling relationship discussed in an earlier paper [Abraham, F. F., 2005. Unstable crack motion is predictable. J. Mech. Phys. Solids 53, 1071–1075], we find that the steady-state speed of a unidirectional crack moving in a hyperelastic solid equals the crack speed in a linear solid with our “effective spring constant”.
