Abstract

On a cylinder with a prescribed normally-positioned surface we consider a quasistatic rate-independent brittle delamination problem and also an adhesive unilateral contact problem. By letting the height of the cylinder go to zero we obtain two quasistatic rate-independent crack models with prescribed path for Kirchhoff-Love plates.
