Starting with equations developed in Part I for the opening mode of displacement, simple, approximate relations are derived for predicting the time of fracture initiation and crack tip velocity in linearly viscoelastic media. First we use the assumption that the second derivative of the logarithm of creep compliance with respect to logarithm of time is small (which is normally valid for viscoelastic materials); we next derive a relation between instantaneous values of tip velocity and stress intensity factor. This result is then used to examine some characteristics of crack growth behavior. Finally, some results are obtained for the separate problem of predicting the time at which propagation initiates.
