On the possibility of extending the crack length criterion in the master curve methodology

Abstract: The Master Curve (MC) methodology is a well-known approach utilized to characterize the ductile-to-brittle transition region (DBTR) of ferritic?pearlitic steels. This methodology was initially standardized in ASTM E1921 in 1997 and has undergone continuous evolution and improvement since its origin. However, the validity criterion for the crack aspect ratio 0.45
