An Alternative Digital Image Correlation-Based Experimental Approach to Estimate Fracture Parameters in Fibrous Soft Materials

One of the main challenges in experimental fracture mechanics is to correctly estimate fracture parameters of a nonhomogeneous and nonlinear material under large deformation. The crack tip detection is strongly affected by fibers at crack tip, leading to inaccurate measures. To overcome this limitat...
