Abstract
Crack mechanics in single-notched sheets of paper is analysed by an approach that combines the concept of virtual crack trajectory ensemble with self-affine crack mechanics formalism. The crack initiation criterion is determined for three kinds of paper. The probability distributions of crack roughness and strength parameters are established. A probabilistic model of self-affine crack propagation in paper is proposed.
