Abstract
Preliminary results achieved by an improved two-dimensional finite difference code regarding crack initiation and dynamic crack propagation in the SEN specimen are presented and discussed. Compared with the previously available numerical codes, the present one simulates crack processes much more accurately, yielding results which have been found to be in excellent agreement with analytical and experimental findings.
