The plane strain problem of a single circular cylindrical inclusion embedded in an unbounded matrix subjected to a remote uniform uniaxial transverse tension is studied. A theoretical model for the simultaneous prediction of \emph{the initial size of a crack originated at the inclusion/matrix interface} (or equivalently the initial polar angle of this crack) and of \emph{the critical remote tension required to originate this crack} is developed. Isotropic and linear elastic behaviour of both materials, with the inclusion being stiffer than the matrix, is assumed. The interface is considered to be strong (providing continuity of displacements and tractions across the interface surface) and brittle. The model developed is based...
