Experimental Challenges in the Investigation of Dynamic Fracture of Brittle Materials
Abstract Experimental investigation of dynamic fracture of brittle materials has a long history, beginning with the early pioneering experiments of Schardin [1] and continuing currently with more sophisticated experimental tools. In examining the dynamic fracture of brittle materials, it is important to perform carefully controlled experiments, where a well-controlled loading is applied and the resulting response is evaluated through proper diagnostic tools. The interpretation of the experiments further requires a theoretical foundation from which the results could be understood. In this paper, we describe the basic experimental schemes that have been used along with a discussion of some of the conclusions and unresolved issues.
