The acceleration rate for the newly formed crack
increases with stress level.

Wallner lines are caused by the interaction between a
stress pulse (a sonic wave) with the crack front.

Wallner Lines in Flexure
Formation of primary Wallner line due to interaction between crack front and
surface defect (point 0) for thin specimen broken in flexure. The tensile
surface is at the top and the fracture origin is off the figure to the left.

Wallner lines in glass plate broken in bending. The most prominent
line was caused by a scratch on the top surface.
