Crack length correction and root rotation angle in a sandwich single cantilever beam (SCB) fracture specimen

Crack root rotation is a measure of deviation from clamped boundary conditions of region in front of the crack tip. The root rotation depends on the shear force and bending moment acting at the crack tip. Such rotation significantly affects the compliance and energy-release rate. Crack root rotation...
