In the field of linear elastic fracture mechanics, the stress intensity factor approach has been widely accepted as a valid means for predicting the behavior of a material in the presence of a crack or flaw. To optimize their dimension and to ensure their safety in service, a practical study of the strength under centrifugal force is important. In this paper, it is investigated that the stress intensity factors K_I and K_II on the rotating elliptic disks having outside cracks by means of combining the photoelastic freezing method and the caustics method. Stress intensity factors K_I and K_II were determined by using two experimental methods, as a function of ellipticity of the elliptic disk (R₂/R₁=0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5) and at two different velocities. The results of these experimental methods was nearly agreement, and attracted the interest.
