Using local out-of-plane compression (LOPC) to study the effects of residual stress on apparent fracture toughness
(2007)
Journal Article
To study and understand the effects of residual stresses on fracture behaviour, it is necessary to introduce well characterised and reproducible residual stresses into laboratory fracture specimens. One technique capable of providing such residual st... Read More about Using local out-of-plane compression (LOPC) to study the effects of residual stress on apparent fracture toughness.
