A mothod to decide the optimal frequency for the fracture velocity measurement by ultrasonic fractography is presented. A theoretical formula to decide the optimal frequency for ultrasonic fractography testing is made and it is compared with experimental value. According to the formula the optimal frequency is shown to be depending on the attenuation coefficient and size(width) of the specimen. In the case of PMA specimen with ligament 43mm the theoretical value for the optimal frequency is about 260 KHz and it is good agreement with experimental value.
