The fracture toughness of a number of cemented carbide alloys have been determined; using a wedge-impact method for precracking. The materials were of WC-Co type with cobalt content ranging from 6 to 25 wt-% and mean carbide grain size between 1.0 and 3.3 pm. Within the investigated composition rang

The material under investigation was ordinary concrete of B 20 class, different in the sizes of coarse aggregate and water-cement ratio of the same value w/c = 0.55. It was found during the tests that there were two kinds of sample cracking mechanisms. Some samples cracked at the moment of the initi
Quasi-static crack advance has been statistically analysed as a function of interfacial toughness using a randomized two-dimensional, polycrystalline model. The average macroscopically observable toughness is calculated to be a strong function of interfacial toughness if the interfaces, grain bounda
