Boundary Layer Effects in Cracked Bodies: An Engineering Assessment

Source

Experimental methods of analysis and corresponding algorithms for converting data into fracture parameters were reviewed. Results obtained from applying the methods to an analysis of boundary layer effects in compact bending specimens and in moderately deep surface flaws under Mode I loading were presented. Finally, a means for incorporating the new results into linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) design rationale was suggested.
