The In ̄uence of the Indenter Tip-Radius on Indentation Testing of Brittle Materials
Indentation testing of a brittle material using a notionally `sharp' indenter may reveal several important physical properties, including fracture toughness, surface ®nish information and the residual stress state. In the case of shallow cone indenters, the contact and fracture mechanics is well de®ned and closed-form solutions exist in elasticity theory. However, no real indenter is atomically...
متن کاملCrack initiation in brittle materials
In this paper we study the crack initiation in a hyper-elastic body governed by a Griffith’s type energy. We prove that, during a load process through a time dependent boundary datum of the type t → tg(x) and in absence of strong singularities (this is the case of homogeneous isotropic materials) the crack initiation is brutal, i.e., a big crack appears after a positive time ti > 0. On the cont...
متن کاملThe Breaking of Brittle Materials
A long metal thread breaks more easily than a short one—an observation Leonardo da Vinci made in the 15th century. It all comes down to simple statistics: the larger an object, the more likely it is to contain a region that breaks when subject to stress. The fracture properties of brittle materials also depend on the disorder in their underlying structure: a homogeneous material like glass brea...
متن کاملFailure of brittle layers on polymeric substrates from Vickers indentation
A study is made of median crack evolution in brittle coatings subjected to sharp contacts. A model bilayer system consisting of a glass plate bonded to a polycarbonate base, with a Vickers pyramid as indenter, is used to demonstrate the evolution in situ. The cracks undergo a phase of stable downward growth with increasing load. Beyond the coating mid-plane, flexural stresses (coupled with the ...
متن کاملAn analysis of chipping in brittle materials
The chipping process in a brittle material subjected to a uniformly applied edge load has been investigated. The present analysis extends earlier work by recognizing that as the chip is formed it may bend and change the loading at the crack tip. This geometry change introduces a nonlinear effect and has significant influence on the phenomenon. The nonlinear effect was demonstrated by incorporat...
