Determination of the Stress Intensity Factor by Means of the Espi Technique

  • Conference paper
Experimental Analysis of Nano and Engineering Materials and Structures

Abstract

The experimental determination of stress intensity factors by means of non-destructive techniques is a research topic of actual interest, In fact there are many applications, where a reliable and accurate experimental procedure is needed to evaluate numerical or theoretical models about the behaviour of cracked or notched structures.
