This paper presents an experimental research on the length and shape of the fracture process zone of rocks under mode I, mixed mode (I + II) and mode II loading conditions for different geometries of cracked specimens made of two types of rocks, using the digital image correlation approach. Single edge notch bending (SENB) and semi-circular bend specimens are the two geometries considered. In order to investigate the effect of the specimen size on the fracture process zone length, rocks with three different sizes are produced and tested. To investigate the effect of the mode mixity on the fracture process zone length of marble and sandstone, the specimens are tested under different modes of loading. According to the experimental results, it is found that the fracture process zone length changes with mode ratio, specimen size, geometry and the material properties. The fracture process zone length increases when the mode of loading moves from mode I to mode II. Experimental results also show that fracture process zone becomes longer for specimens with larger sizes. The fracture process zone is also affected by the specimen geometry.

Dic Technique

As a state-of-the-art method, the digital image correlation (DIC) technique is used to capture the fracture properties of wood along the longitudinal direction, such as the crack propagation, the strain field, and the fracture process zone (FPZ). Single-edge notched (SEN) specimens made of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) from Canada with different notch-to-depth ratios are tested by three-point-bending (3-p-b) experiment. The crack mouth opening displacements (CMOD) measured by the clip gauge and DIC technique agree well with each other, verifying the applicability of the DIC technique. Then, the quasi-brittle fracture process of wood is analyzed by combing the load-CMOD curve and the strain field in front of the preformed crack. Additionally, the equivalent elastic crack length is calculated using the linear superposition hypothesis. The comparison between the FPZ evolution and the equivalent elastic crack shows that specimens with higher notch-to-depth ratios have better cohesive effect and higher cracking resistance.

The size of the fracture process zone (FPZ) has significance for studying the fracture mechanism and fracture characteristics of concrete. This paper presents the method of assessing the FPZ of Mixed-Mode I-II for quasi-static four-point shearing concrete beams with pre-notched by Lagrangian strain profiles from digital image correlation (DIC). Additionally, it explores the influences of volume rates of the coarse aggregate of 0%, 28%, 48%, and 68%, and the specific surface areas of 0.12 m2/kg, 0.15 m2/kg, and 0.26 m2/kg on the size of the FPZ. It shows that the size of FPZ in four-point shearing concrete beam can be characterized by the displacement field and strain field using DIC. The size of FPZ conforms to linear positive correlation with the volume rate of coarse aggregate, and linear negative correlation with the specific surface area of coarse aggregate. It presents that the crack initiation of the four-point shearing beam with the pre notch is dominated by mode I load, and the propagation and fracture of Mixed-Mode I-II cracks are caused by the combined effect of Mode I and Mode II loading.
