## Abstract Few engineering materials are limited by their strength; rather they are limited by their resistance to fracture or fracture toughness. It is not by accident that most critical structures, such as bridges, ships, nuclear pressure vessels and so forth, are manufactured from materials tha

Layered materials, such as sedimentary rocks, are ubiquitous. A newly developed fracture toughness test specimen, which is semi-circular in shape and contains an edge-crack, is subjected to three-point-bend loading. The fracture load and the fracture energy of a layered rock are then measured with s
THE TEARING modulus approach to ductile fracture instability, as developed by Paris et al. [ l] is based on the following main assumptions: (a) that the J-integral can be determined in terms of the system loading and crack length, while ignoring the detailed fracture mechanisms operative within a p
The effects of rubber content and temperature on dynamic fracture toughness of ABS materials have been investigated based on the J-integral and crack opening displacement (COD, โฆ) concepts by an instrumented Charpy impact test. A multiple specimens R-curve method and stop block technique are used. I
The variation of fracture toughness with specimen thickness for Comsteel En25 compact tension specimens ranging in thickness from 4 mm to 25 mm and tempered from the asquenched state to 600ยฐC is predicted reasonably well using the models proposed by Bluhm Proc.
