    Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM). In this criterion‚ the two fracture parameters take account of the deviation of the stress to failure from the stress calculated pursuant to LEFM principles. These parameters have to be calculated earlier in pretests known as base line tests to be conducted under identical conditions of the material. It was possible neither to find 48 the failure stress of pressure vessels by means of the fracture parameter obtained from fracture mechanics specimen nor to
