First Major Improvements to the Two-curve Fracture Arrest Model

The proposed program has the objectives to make the first major improvements to the most commonly analysis for ductile fracture arrest toughness requirements for gas pipeline applications, as well as to develop experimental data that could be used for validation of more fundamental analyses in the future.
