Abstract

Provided is an information processing apparatus including a crack leading edge candidate extraction unit configured to extract a crack leading edge candidate after progress of a crack in a structure, an elastic energy release rate calculation unit configured to calculate an elastic energy release rate that indicates an elastic energy released when the crack progresses to the extracted crack leading edge candidate, and a crack leading edge decision unit configured to decide a crack leading edge after the progress of the crack at least based on the elastic energy release rate. The crack leading edge candidate extraction unit extracts the crack leading edge candidate that satisfies a predetermined condition from crack leading edge candidates obtained in terms of a construction of the structure.
