摘要
A multicutting technique is introduced, which can be used to determine the extension of the fracture-process zone together with the conventional compliance method. A new compliance curve is established from a damaged specimen during multicutting and compared with the compliance-calibration curve. From the comparison of these two compliance curves the extension of the fracture-process zone can be estimated. Experimental results of wedge-opening loaded specimens with a ligament length of 110 mm show that the length of the fracture-process zone in mortar varies from around 43 mm to 12 mm while the crack is approaching to the boundary. A relation between the length of the fracture-process zone and the shape of the K-r-curve is established.
