The effect of a side-groove constraint on a pre-cracked Charpy-size specimen, and the influence of a side-groove on fracture tou&ess parameters are studied. The results indicate that when side-groove depth approaches a critical value, the maximum load toughness & values are nearly coincident with th

Early work showed that there was a fracture toughness peak (FTP) as the fracture toughness changed with crack length/specimen width (aj W). It could be thought of as a "safe crack" for the cracks whose length is smaller than that where the FTP is located. In the present paper, it is indicated that t
An equivalent continuum model of rock mass consisting of joints and rock is proposed by averaging the stress and strain in a volume element. Using the theory of damage mechanics and fracture mechanics, the damage tensor, effective stress tensor, damage strain, etc. of the rock mass are defined, prop
