Abstract: | In this paper we propose a variational model for the irreversible quasi static growth in brittle fractures for a linearly
elastic homogeneous isotropic plate, subject to a time dependent vertical displacement on a part of its lateral surface. The
model is based on the Griffith’s criterion for crack growth and is inspired to the model proposed in 11] by Francfort and
Marigo in the case of 3-D elasticity. We give a precise mathematical formulation of the model and in this framework we prove
an existence result.
