A limiting approach inquiry into far field effects on local field equations for mixed mode surface flaws is investigated by computer analysis. Curves showing the diminishing effect of the far field stress towards the cracks tip are plotted using fringe radii ratios vs fringe number. The zone used in

An improvement of the one-parameter extrapolation method of photoelastic determination of complex (mixed-mode) stress intensity factors at straight or curvilinear crack tips in a plane isotropic elastic medium due to Smith et aL[12, I31 can be achieved by measuring the absolute value of such a facto
Results of photoelastic investigations on single edge-notch tension specimens of varying notch angle and crack length are reported. The experimental results of Mode 1 stress intensity factors are compared with analytical results.
THE sraxss distribution in a plate into which a crack is generated has been studied by many investigators. The most earlier contri&tuions are due to Inglis[ll, who studied the stresses around an elliptic hole in an iu8nite plate and to Westergaard [2], who treated the crack problem by the complex. v
FOR THE determination of Mode I S.I.F for cracks and geometrical discontinuities in three dimensional photoelastic models, the usual practice is to freeze or lock the stresses in the model and analyse a slice containing the region of interest cut from the model. While several methods have been propo
A new simple method for the photoelastic determination of Mode I stress intensity factors from isochromatics is proposed. This method takes into account the fact that a considerable part of the error committed in the photoelastic determination of Mode i stress intensity factors Kt at crack tips, bas
