... estimation. Pipeline tensile strain capacity wide plate test test procedure S O data is obtained when valid test conditions are confirmed. Crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD) is often measured in CWP tests. CMOD is a direct indicator of the amount of defo indicator of th crack...

... unchanged over the years, the size of the test specimen, strain measurement, and test procedure, has had some variations. The influence of these variables has not been adequately examined. While this might be acceptable for tests targeted for stress-based design in which a general pass/no-pass answer...
