โฆ Synopsis
A silicone rubber has been used to infiltrate cracks created during slow bend tests on notched BY 100 and HY 130 steel specimens at room temperature. Crack opening displacements have been measured directly from the hardened rubber replicas of the crack. The growth of the stretch zone is in agreement with that predicted by slip line analysis. Crack initiation is seen to be a nebulous process occurring irregularly along the slot front. The initial growth of a fibrous crack has also been studied.
