Measurement of Opening Displacement of Single and Bifurcated Notches by Moiré Interferometry

Static experiments are performed to confirm the COD method that is the only method to measure the energy release rate of fast propagating cracks just after bifurcation. The crack opening displacement (COD) of the mother cracks of bifurcated cracks is measured in static condition by Moiré interfer...
