This paper reports a short summary of some procedures that allow to evaluate crack growth propagation rate. Numerical models developed using the equations of linear elastic fracture mechanics are described. Confirmation of the numerical results needs comparison with experimental results. The crack replica method and crack growth gages application are reported and prove to be powerful tools for crack propagation rate evaluation.
