Abstract

AbstractAn alternative approach for determining J‐R curves from a single specimen test based on the normalization technique is proposed. The procedure requires only the load versus load‐line displacement record and the final crack length in order to derive the J‐R curve. The method has been applied to metal and polymers of various geometries and was verified by comparison with J‐R curves obtained from potential drop and multiple specimen techniques.
