Diametral compression of a grooved, disc shaped specimen is used to determine fracture toughness. This method's most important features are that extremely small specimens can be used and no knowledge of material properties is needed. It is suitable for many brittle materials, e.g. glass, cemented ca
Stress intensity factor formulas and dimensionless compliance formula of chevron-notch three point bend specimen obtained by use of straight-through-crack assumption (STCA) and Bluhm's slice model have been presented. Two stress intensity factor coefficient formulas have been compared with the exper
