Measuring the strength of brittle materials by depth-of-penetration testing [PDF]
, 2010 Based on an energy conservation model, the strength offered by a number of brittle materials has been calculated from depth-of-penetration (DOP) test results. Each material was completely penetrated by a tungsten carbide cored projectile of known kinetic
