Abstract

Difficulties associated with full-scale pipe tests are rather obvious. That is, it is not only difficult to perform them but also very expensive and it requires lots of experience. And the process of the fracture test for the pipe specimen is very difficult and complicated. Because the pipe specimen, the test jig and the test equipment are very large and heavy, it requires lots of costs and times. In this study, to easily perform the fracture toughness test for a pipe specimen, load line displacement data was obtained using the image processing method.
