## Abstract Well‐defined correlations exist between the maxima in mechanical loss factor and the local maxima in temperature‐ or loading‐speed‐dependent fracture toughness. The non‐linear viscoelastic fracture processes and small‐strain deformations are characterised by the same Arrhenius‐type acti

✦ Synopsis
The fracture toughness of specimens of Canadian coal, expressed as KQ, was determined under both quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. In all tests, a wedge loaded compact tension (WLCT) specimen was used. The quasi-static tests were carried out in a servohydraulic testing machine while in the dynamic testing, a Split Hopkinson Bar was used. Also studied was t& effect of orientation of the crack with respect to the coal seam. Loading rates ranging from 0.1 MPa dmlsec. to 6 x lo4 MPa dmlsec. were investigated. The results show a large increase of over one order of magnitude between Ko in the quasi-static and that obtained at high loading rates.
