Cruciform specimens for the determination of crack growth behaviour in biaxial stress fields: calculation of K-factors
The aim of this study is to propose a simplified calculation of the Mode I stress intensity factor K for the cruciform specimen design proposed by Brown and Miller. To calculate K, both cracks have to grow with a similar crack growth rate and the crack paths of the two single cracks with the length...
