Loading, friction of crack planes and influence among cracks are not needed to know as they are combined and transformed into the caustic shadow used in detecting the stress intensity factor. Even boundary condition is not necessary. Therefore it is effective to determine the stress intensity factor of compressive shear crack.展开更多

文摘The caustic method is applied to compressive shear experiment and used to detect the stress intensity factors of cracks prefabricated on plexiglass sample. Loading, friction of crack planes and influence among cracks are not needed to know as they are combined and transformed into the caustic shadow used in detecting the stress intensity factor.
