Abstract:

In this paper, the compliance method was applied to determine fracture toughness of C.lanceolata. The results showed that: 1.the compliance method is an available and feasible experimental plotting method, the relationship between compliance and crack length may be expressed by exponent function(C=α exp(βa/w))very well; 2.in this testing, the fracture toughness KTLIC of C.lanceolata is equal to 4.825 Mpa·mm1/2 .

Key words: Wood fracture mechanics, Fracture toughness, Testing plot, Compliance method
