The post-yield fracture of a ductile polymer film: Notch quality, essential work of fracture, crack tip opening displacement, and J-integral [PDF]
, 2017 Double edge notched tension (DENT) specimens of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film were tested in an universal testing machine, measuring the displacements and the ligament lengths with a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

Crack tip strain evolution and crack closure during overload of a growing fatigue crack [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2017 It is generally accepted that fatigue crack growth is retarded after an overload, which has been explained either by plasticity-induced crack closure or near-tip residual stress.

Determining mode I cohesive law of Pinus pinaster by coupling double cantilever beam test with digital image correlation [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2015 The direct identification of the cohesive law in pure mode I of Pinus pinaster is addressed. The approach couples the double cantilever beam (DCB) test with digital image correlation (DIC).

A numerical study of non-linear crack tip parameters [PDF]
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2015 Crack closure concept has been widely used to explain different issues of fatigue crack propagation. However, different authors have questioned the relevance of crack closure and have proposed alternative concepts.

Modeling water penetration at dam-foundation joint [PDF]
, 2007 When fracture occurs in a concrete dam, the crack mouth is typically exposed to water. Very often this phenomenon occurs at the dam-foundation joint and is driven also by the fluid pressure inside the crack.

Displacement Discontinuity Analysis of the Effects of Various Hydraulic Fracturing Parameters on the Crack Opening Displacement (COD) [PDF]
Journal of Petroleum Science and Technology, 2018 The combination of horizontal drilling along with hydraulic fracturing has significantly improved the production of hydrocarbon reservoirs and made it possible to extract the relatively impermeable and uneconomical reservoirs.

Study of SENT specimens with a tilted notch to evaluate ductile tearing in spiral welded pipeline applications [PDF]
, 2015 There is an increasing interest for the use of spiral welded pipelines in strain based design applications. Environmentally imposed loads are able to plastically deform the pipelines, meaning that their structural response is of the utmost importance ...
