Crack propagation in a brittle DCB specimen assessed by means of the Williams’ power expansion
A double cantilever beam geometry has been chosen in order to investigate the importance of the higher-order terms of the Williams’ power expansion for the crack path estimation. The crack propagation has been tested experimentally on a brittle polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) specimen and although th...
