An experimental investigation of mode-I crack tip deformation

The out-of-plane displacement of amorphous polymethylmethacrylate plates rupturing at slow (0.1 mm/s), and fast (0.5 to 0.9 mm/µs) rates are measured using a Twymann-Green interferometer. The measured surface shapes within one plate thickness of the crack-tip do not compare well with the two-dimensi...
