โฆ Synopsis
An
elementary approximate formula for the stress intensity factor for the pressurized star crack is established. The formula is sufficiently accurate to be used in practical applications in place of the more complex formulas derived by Westmann [l] and Williams [2]. Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

A simple interference method has been used to measure the opening displacement of cracks in glass plates under eccentric tension load. The results have been compared with analytical predictions from the boundary collocation method and the Westergaard analysis. Since the crack opening displacement is
When these data are applied to the formula derived by M. A. Schroedl and C. W. Smith, the stress intensity factor K, can be calculated. Comparing this computed K, with that given by theoretical formula, we have found the error to be within t 5.20%. It is believed that the result of this test has met
