Figure 4.21a. Propagation simulations for two 25-m-long anticrack bands approaching
each other along parallel paths under isotropic remote stress conditions and initial spacing
intervals of 2.5 cm (top), 25 cm (middle) and 2.5 m (bottom). Black lines indicate starting
configurations, colored lines indicate simulated paths, all dimensions in meters.
