✦ Synopsis


A series of studies which demonstrate the potential of a proposed mode I1 fracture specimen are reported. First, previously obtained photoelastie results&31 are reviewed so that this paper will be self-contained. Then, a finite element analysis is presented in order not only to corroborate the experimental results but also to calibrate the specimen for Kuc measurements. Finally, a preliminary KII~ test performed on a brittle steel specimen is described.
