The specimen was set aside because few H1N1 cases were reported last winter, and the centers routinely concentrate on testing the most prevalent strains.
Although the pre-crack length of the specimen was set to 50 mm to insert the PTFE sheet, an initial crack front is not sufficiently sharp, and overestimation of the G IC value is expected at the first part of the crack propagation.
The estimated power at the specimen was set to 1 mW/mm, as measured with a photodiode (Thorlabs).
In brief, the specimen was set on a computer-controlled microscope stage and observed from the upper side with a charged-coupling device (CCD) camera.

The cylindrical axis of the specimen is set parallel to that of the glass tube, which is also fixed along the spinning axis by using a collet.
The specimens were set in an intertidal environment and divided into two study groups: one whose bacterial film was removed, and the other whose bacterial film was left intact.
This specimen was used for tear resistance test measurements with a 1 mm nick at point A. The specimens were set up to have the force applied vertically by an Instron 3369 tensile testing machine with a 1 kN load cell (Additional file 1: Figure S1 (Appendix)), at a crosshead displacement speed of 500 mm/min.
A finite element model of the notched specimen was set up for the analysis of the stress field acting during fatigue loading; this allowed a prediction of its fatigue behaviour, which appeared to be in satisfactory agreement with experimental observations.
