## Abstract An efficient civil infrastructure system is essential to every country's productivity, security, and quality of life. Basic research and development in smart structures and designer materials have shown great potential for enhancing the functionality, serviceability, and increased lifes
In the case of relatively brittle structural materials, linear fracture mechanics provides an analysis basis for testing and control of fracture strength. Standardized methods of crack toughness testing are available only for metals which can be pre-cracked by fatigue. Hence, further work on this t
