Resumo
Este trabalho apresenta um procedimento para determinação experimental dos parâmetros de tenacidade J e CTOD em espécimes de flexão SE(B) utilizando o método eta. O objetivo central é a obtenção de fatores adimensionais h ( e t a ) calibrados numericamente e aplicáveis a uma faixa abrangente de dimensões relativas de trincas (0.05 £ a / W £ 0 . 7 ) e propriedades de encruamento do material. Os resultados das análises permitem estabelecer curvas do fator adimensional h em função da dimensão da trinca (a/W) e das propriedades de encruamento do material as quais permitirão a determinação mais acurada dos parâmetros J e CTOD obtidos experimentalmente.

Abstract
This work presents an estimation procedure to determine the fracture toughness parameters J and CTOD for SE(B) specimens using the eta method. The main purpose is to obtain numerically calibrated h (eta) factors which are applicable to an extensive range of relative crack dimensions (0.05 £ a/W £ 0.7) and material hardening properties. The analysis results enable the construction of functional forms which describe the variation of the h factors with crack size (a/W) and material hardening properties, n. The procedure provides more accurate toughness values of J and CTOD from laboratory experimental measurements of fracture toughness.
