Mode I Fracture Energy DeterminationM-216

Description

Two substrates are bonded together with an initial non-bonded area at one to help intiate the crack. The specimen is loaded into a special fixure that allows for the pulling apart of the two substrates at a constant rate. The force and length of the crack that results is recorded.

Data
