The influence of the indenter tip-radius on indentation testing of brittle materials [PDF]
Indentation testing of a brittle material using a notionally ‘sharp’ indenter may reveal several important physical properties, including fracture toughness, surface finish information and the residual stress state. In the case of shallow cone indenters,

Fracture morphology and its evolution A review on crack path stability and brittle fracture along butt-weld [PDF]
Considerations are made for the fracture morphology and its evolution in relation to the brittle fracture along butt-weld, where crack path stability may play important roles in various aspects. Analyses of a kinked and curved crack are first reviewed in

Fracture mechanics of micro samples: Fundamental considerations
In this review article we consider the crack growth resistance of micrometer and sub-micrometer sized samples from the fracture mechanics point of view. Standard fracture mechanics test procedures were developed for macro-scale samples, and reduction of ...

Effects of High Toughness and Welding Residual Stress for Unstable Fracture Prevention
Unstable fractures generally occur in brittle materials under low-temperature service conditions. Toughness and welding residual stress are the main factors that should be evaluated when defining a brittle crack propagation path. In this study, a rainbow

Investigation on the Applicability of Several Fracture Criteria to the Mixed Mode Brittle Fractures
Mixed mode brittle fractures are very common failure behavior for cracked brittle materials under loading, and therefore, the prediction of the mixed mode brittle fractures is significant.
