Abstract
The K-distribution along a straight crack in a single edge notch specimen a nd a slant crack in a three-point bending specimen is determined using the interaction integral method (IINT) and the quarter point element stress met hod (QPES). The results are discussed and recommendations for the proper us e of both methods are given. Copyright (C) 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
