Abstract

The stress intensity factors of specimen with inclined cracks under tensile load are measured by use of isochromatics that are obtained from circular polariscope in photoelastic experiment and processed with digital image processing technique. The results of stress intensity factors obtained by photoelastic experiment are comparable to those by empirical equations and finite element method. This means that the photoelasticity can measure accurately the stress intensity factors.
