Examination of Lubrication Effects on Fracture Measurements of Hydrogels via Cutting

Despite cutting being a common process in the fracture of soft materials, there is no well-defined method that can be considered equivalent to some of the more traditional methods of fracture based in tension. A recently developed method by the name of razorblade-initiated fracture testing (RIFT) pr...
