✦ Synopsis
Critical values of the crack-tip-opening displacement, COD,, are determined on CIIspecimens having different thicknesses and ligament lengths. COD, is determined using the method of stereophotogrammetry with the scanning-electron microscope. The in&nce of specimen geometry on CODi is studied. Criteria are given for the minimum specimen dimensions which are necessary to measure correct plane-strain COD,-values.

In this paper the influence of geometry of edge-cracked plates on crack propagate under mixed mode loading conditions is studied. The edge-cracked plates under tension are examined. The crack extension angle and the critical stress of fracture are determined for various values of the crack inclinati
