A simplified improved beam analysis of the DCB specimen
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified improved beam model is proposed to analyze the cracked part of a double cantilever beam by means of shear-corrected classical beam theory and the uncracked part is analysed by considering Saint Venant effects and deformation of a beam on an elastic foundation.

Stress Analysis of Cracks
Paul C. Paris,G.C. Sih +1 more
TL;DR: Elastic stress analyses of cracked bodies represented by stress intensity factor method - fracture mechanics as discussed by the authors, and fracture mechanics are used for fracture mechanics. But they are not suitable for fracture analysis.
