Introduction From 1960s, Kalman filtering theory has been efficiently applied in hydraulic engineering and communication engineering etc.
Because of its characteristics of prediction, correction and optimization, some research results of applying Kalman filtering theory in civil engineering has been obtained recently[1-4].
In fact, the back analysis of parameters has been widely used in practical engineering, especially in material parameters[14-17].

Elastic-plastic Fracture Assessment for the Cracks Emanating from a Circular Hole under a Biaxial Loading Condition Wang Z X a, Liu R b Faculty of Civil Engineering and Mechanics, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, China, 212013 a wzx-5566@163.com, b lrrb_007@163.com Keywords: Hole-edge crack, Elastic-plastic fracture, Finite element analysis, Biaxial load, Failure assessment diagram.
Introduction There are inevitable holes, cracks or defects in engineering structures, which result in a series of problems, such as stress concentration and structural failure.
Since engineering components are made ​​of tough metallic materials in the low-strength or medium-strength, before fracture or instability damage take place, there are a large amount of plastic deformations near holes, cracks or defects.
