This note describes the present status of a simple closure measurement technique, based upon a new analytic interpretation, and is initially applied to aluminum and titanium alloys. The proposeed procedure implements only one experimentally determined parameter for the assessment of the closure load

The phenomenon of fatigue crack closure has attracted continued interest over recent years. This paper concerns itself with one aspect of the phenomenon namely the effects of a single asperity on the crack face close to the crack tip and under dominantly plane strain Mode 1 loading conditions. The m
