Determining Crack Kinematics from Imaged Crack Patterns
Determining the relationship between the cause of damage and the subsequent structural behavior of infrastructure systems requires an accurate characterization of the propagation of cracks, which represents the evolution of the damage state. When no information about the cause of damage is available, kinematic approaches can be used to describe the ...
