Abstract

A slow crack growth was achieved in initially edge-cracked specimens made of a high-molecular weight PMMA by regulating the cross-head speed of loading by a computer-driven testing machine. The strain rate\(\dot \varepsilon \) used during the tests varied between\(\dot \varepsilon \) =1× l0−6 s−1 and 1×10−4 s−1.
