Stress intensity factors for long, deep surface flaws in plates under extentional fields

Using a singular solution for a part circular crack by F. W. Smith, a Taylor Series Correction Method (TSCM) was verified for extracting stress intensity factors from photoelastic data. Photoelastic experiments were then conducted on plates with part circular and flat bottomed cracks for flaw depth...
