Experimental techniques used to verify healing

There are many techniques to study materials. In this chapter the focus of experimental techniques to verify crack sealing (recovery against environmental actions) or crack healing (recovery against mechanical actions) has been limited to techniques that have been used and reported in self-sealing and self-healing research.
