Fracture mechanic testing
Stay ahead of brittle fracture, crack growth or material defects.
Fracture mechanic testing or fracture toughness testing
By making use of the possibilities within fracture mechanic testing, brittle fracture, crack development and material defects can be analyzed and subsequently most likely avoided.
Huge structures require extensive knowledge by engineers, designers or developers no matter if the structure is a:
- Offshore platform
- Wind farm
- Oil Tank
- Onshore or offshore foundation
- Etc.
In our mechanical test laboratory, the most up-to-day software to analyze fracture mechanic test results is at your disposal. Typical fracture mechanic testing includes:
- CTOD testing (Crack Tip Opening Displacement)
- Fracture toughness testing determine KIC or J-integral
- Crack Growth Rate
After completing the test, you will not only receive a final test result. Our team of design and stress analysis experts are available to guide you or calculate consequences based on the completed test results.
Services
Mechanical testing of materials
Control and examination of mechanical properties of materials and welds.
Tensile testing
