prediction that the crack-tip stress field of a fast-running crack shifts its maximum off the crack plane near a critical speed, linked to branching.

In fracture mechanics, Yoffe instability refers to prediction that the crack-tip stress field of a fast-running crack shifts its maximum off the crack plane near a critical speed, linked to branching. This meaning comes from Yoffe (1951) in The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science.[1]
