Abstract
A B S T R A C T A new fracture test specimen is suggested and analyzed using finite element method. The mode I and mode II stress intensity factors as well as the T-stress were calculated for three geometries and loading conditions. It is shown that the specimen, called single edge cracked ring (SECR), covers different mixed mode loading conditions from pure mode I to pure mode II. The SECR specimen also covers negative and positive values of T-stresses. From the practical view point, the suggested specimen can be used easily for mixed mode II fracture tests.
