Abstract
This article presents a literature review of the different published methods in which crack apex plasticity is used as a parameter to determine or improve the crack growth model. The review includes analytical, experimental and numerical investigations, as well as their combination. Finally, a discussion of the merits and problems of the methods presented is given.
