The propagation of fractures in a solid undergoing cyclic loadings is known as the fatigue phenomenon. In this paper, we present a time continuous model for fatigue, in the special situation of the debonding of thin layers, coming from a time discretized version recently proposed by Jaubert and Marigo [C. R. Mecanique 333 (2005) 550–556]. Under very general assumptions on the surface energy density and on the applied displacement, we discuss the well-posedness of our problem and we give the main properties of the evolution process.
